Iced Light House...

Here I come,

locking down the wired fence,

stepping outside the burning sun,

seeking shelter in your arms...



How could you,

believe that I would leave you be,

thought that I could please you still,

while you ate through what was mine to scream....



Time after time

from between my fingers you slip by...

But in my thoughts you stay,

biting sane me away...



Washed in the chime,

of a distant tower drowned,

by the wails of my lullaby

silenced, you scream...



Locked up in iced

light house which never glowed,

loathesome that you were never on the road...



You just seem,

like a jellyfish in a lantern beam,

glowing night away,

with your poisonous sway...



Washed in the chime,

of a distant tower drowned,

by the wails of my lullaby

silenced, you scream...



And so there we belong,

wails on walls that were never done,

painted scars of our scorn...



Here we bellow,

skipping heartbeat for a song,

climbing mountains for a moan...



Time after time,

from between my fingers you slip by...

But in my thoughts you stay,

biting sane me away...



Biting sane me away,

long, too long to stay.... alive....



Here we bellow...........
