Thorns
All of life's wonders...
Years of pain and bliss...
We tasted together ..
In one passionate kiss...
But now comes a cloud of night..
That swiftly veils the dancing light
Where is that pure delight..
That magically stole my sight?
Words you said ...hurt me still
Thoughts invade me.. against my will
Let him go, my mind insists...
Hold him tight, my heart resists...
I would have prayed
harder to find my mate
had I known that fate
would visit this soul so late...
But life has not been kind
to this heart of mine...
I sit and watch as time goes by
a poet's well has run dry...
Dreams I leave behind
letters to all mankind..
I wonder ...will anyone recognize
this jewel of paradise?
One hour of passion is worth
ages of heartless bliss
But, Oh, if there be heaven on earth...
It is this....It is this....
