My Lady is Broken

One Day

My Lady Is Broken

I don't recall ever feeling this defeated

Heart, mind and soul depleted

Soaked by the tides of my desperation

Her love absent without explanation

The space between us no longer measured in distance

My heart fights back with endless persistence

This chill in the air survives a thousand fires

Suddenly a stranger to all her desires

If she would only show me the color that began this decline

I would paint over it white, bright and divine

Silence that brings a deafening sound

My heart pumping fear with every pound

Love shows it's cruelty, refusing to hide

Every minute I stay I die more inside

All I can hear now are the words she can't say

Maybe this is a dream and I will wake one day.
