Description

My heart underneath

Cries quietly

This part of me

I choose not to see

What road must I take

For happiness’ sake

How much must I lose

If this road I choose

My life leaves its trail

In moonlight so pale

Its shadows they flow

In rivers, in rivers

I put on my mask

And back to my task

So I might once again see the Roses of May

Staining my soul and stinging my eyes

The guilt in my heart

Won't wash away, wash away

Nowhere to run from what I have done

I'm no longer, no longer a Rose of May

Fate builds the path before you

Mirrored in its traveller’s eyes

Far from myself I fly

Into the perilous skies

And they said

Follow the road before you

Fear fall and courage rise

Leave all your tears behind you

Far from where innocence lies

Cage of my heart

Crafted with art

Turned it to stone

In darkness its thrown

When you look at me

What do you see?

This costume I weave

disfiguring me...

Storm clouds are creeping closer

Danger is drawing near

Why am I not protecting all that I once held dear?

Led here by fate

No longer afraid

So here now I lay

In Roses of May

Not feeling all too well the last days... hence the poems. Just using my two babies to work through it...
