Brutal Harmony and flashes of light upon the grave of the girl I once was undulations of colour and sound that leave with such melancholy it steals the breath For years I've waited for just one heart to beat in time with mine and now, when I find that heart, he finds himself unworthy The people I find most beautiful never know the beauty in themselves Like opaque mirrors no image shows only the outline of that which I wish to own This heart spits fire like lips spit words But the only words that ever rain from my mouth are words of admiration tales of violets but our chilling silence sometimes Songtextefills the spaces like the distance between us I find the deepest pride in the colour of your eyes This pride . . .I feel. . . for you. . . screams through me ripping through my lungs expelling itself as divine silence. . . a whisper of words that sound soemthing like "You're perfect" And you deny, won't accept those words You find scars on your skin that lay deep beneath the layers I can see I breathe these in beause they are you I speak now in a voice unworthy of your ears and say "These scars are yours and therefore are beautiful becasuse you. . . are beautiful" Your eyes wide like innocence a thing I have lost but not forgotten a love I lost but have not forgotten Your heart. . .I claim. . .as mine. . . taking everything as a cherished gift Inner scars no longer matter Your voice makes it all worthwhile Relinquishing these tired arms to a place of rest known as your own Hoping you'll accept Hoping you'll succumb cos the words mean nothing if I can't convince you to let me find your perfection and then hold it to this heart, still mending its broken wings, so that I may help you find it yourself. . . this Heaven I found in your eyes. . .
