A Step From The River


I wish to be forever in my own innocence

Simplicity of never ending happiness

If my head is constantly amongst the clouds

There is no way to fear evil I cannot see

I might not be safe in your eyes

But at least I feel safe in mine

But I do wish more then any dream

That I had not given him a reason to look away

Because there is one in front of my eyes

And another hidden behind them

Innocence is a shield easily shattered

But it is an attempt to at least save the rest of my heart

I could be found out to be all wrong

But how can I tell from where I sit

Intoxication slips whispers of lies and lust

Your eyes seem so sad at their sound

I ask you if they are all lies

You never answer me nor breathe

It's painful to find you there with that soft smile

But if fades when the past is presented and questioned

Sensibility doesn't come to mind

When the heart blinds all other sources of sense

He says I am one of a kind and he is sure You love me

Your eyes scream yes but Your lips wont comply

Another drink and he says You wish You could take it back

And another before he says that You're in pain

Another look and a frown as he says You'll regret it forever

Your eyes tell me he is right

You'll maybe never tell the truth about it all

But the man was right and Your eyes agree

I shall never regret Him

Nor his child
