Aurelia

I walk among the trees in the evening
Shadows that have opened in my mind
A heaviness slows my breathing
Somehow it speeds up time
Ascending from a cold stone wall
With jagged rocks cutting as I climb
Fading as I softly fall
Whisper to me where I lie
I’ll still love you when the morning comes
The morning never felt so bad
Do you ever really think about me?
The morning never felt so…
I’ll still love you when the moon it falls
You whisper to my wounded soul
So bitter but it tastes so sweet
I swam through a river I saw
Swimming under glass sheets three feet deep
I guess that’s why I didn’t hear you call
Caught up in emotions I can’t speak
Dear lover I am all exposed
Illuminated in your glow
I always knew I’d end up alone
Forever haunted by your ghost
I’ll still love you when the morning comes
The morning never felt so bad
Do you ever really think about me?
The morning never felt so
I’ll still love you when the moon it falls
You whisper to my wounded soul
So bitter but it tastes so sweet
Your love is a poison arrow through my heart
I try in vain to elude it
You paint me in your picture, distill me in your art
A heavy brush won’t remove it
I’ll still love you when the morning comes
The morning never felt so bad
Do you ever really think about me?
The morning never felt so
I’ll still love you when the moon it falls
You whisper to my wounded soul
So bitter but it tastes so sweet
