Emptiness
To bring the fire back into your eyes
I'd do just about anything for you
Fear smothers my heart as I realise
If the fire is missing, you're not you
Open up, tell me how to end your strife
Break this painful silence that's deafening
Carry yourself, barely clinging to life
Colours more faded than those winter brings
Tried my best to piece you back together
All this time in vain, searching for a spark
In perpetual rain, hissing embers
Desperate to flee from the downpour, the dark
I wish you'd shine, just like you did before
Come back, my love, please don't hide anymore
Memory
Standing alone, a beauty in moonlight
I remember when you first caught my gaze
Drenched in the blood of a triumphant fight
A glistening ruby lost in a daze
Roses, flowers of love, covered in thorns
Flourish in a garden of summer's day
Won't hesitate to cut you 'til you're torn
If you find yourself falling in their way
My rose, that night I fell into your arms
Ignoring the wounds as I shared your space
I understood well that you'd bring me harm
Even still, never ceasing my embrace
The emptiness that plagued me disappeared
With you here in my life, my skies have cleared
Love
Give you the world leaving nothing behind
Wander around in the barren wasteland
Follow you close, as without you I'm blind
My guiding light, let me take your hand
Love is as sweet as the softest cherry
Careless there's poison that hides in the seed
If unrequited is how it must be
Then I'll let you be the reason I bleed
My soul is longing to be one with yours
Deep in my mind, you're etched onto my skin
From times you bruised me, broke me to the core
Your affection, emotions flooding in
By your side, is the only place I'll be
Chained to you, I'll never ask for the key
Fruition
To bring the fire back into your eyes
I'd do just about anything for you
At the penultimate hour by your side
Patiently wait, while we take in the view
Midnight begins, cascading its thunders
Meticulous schemes now fall into place
Fireworks burst, myriad of colours
At last, despair is lost without a trace
If I'm not the root of your desire
With a glance, I can't set your heart ablaze
He that can, I've placed atop this pyre
I'll watch you walk towards its glowing haze
Once more, I see that smile I do adore
I know that I'll love you forevermore
