Lover in Shadow

I wanna reach out and take your hand,

but you pull yourself out of the abyss,

like an Amazon put on trial.

As I fade into the shadows,

I watch as the doors to your heart close

and the keys to my heart go with you.

As I stand on the rooftop gazing at the moon,

I wonder if the man who lives there has a soul

or if his lonely heart dried up with no love for sustenance.
