I wrote this one back in 1996...
by Domri Stevens, 1996
My heart is embedded in a cache of thorns
My mind cries out for eternal peace
Like a bear in a trap,
My bones scream for the pain
Where did my heart go?
My mind doesn’t know
Do you even think of me?
In your dreams, do you take me in your arms?
Could we ever again, dance the dance of dreams?
I love you
Oh, the lovely pain
Ripping my heart to shreds
My night, my light, my love
Drag the lovely pain into my wavering heart
And kiss me goodnight
For shall I see you no more?
Bring me peace eternal from the lovely pain
And I will draw…my last breath.
