Untitled 7-10-05

The setting sun's rays illuminate our pain
Glancing through our emotions, straight to the heart
This feeling of insecurity I never want to lose
It's testament to the true love that lies beneath
Hidden below the surface of my sorrow.
Your eyes gazed at me through cloudy days
Misty veils enveloping the true from the false
Unseeing, you stare right through me
And the song in my heart died with your soul.

I see your silhouette just beyond the horizon
Reaching out, I touch nothing but air
Crying out, I hear nothing but the silence
You're nothing but a memory, ghost of the past
Haunting the dark recesses of my emotions
Drawing out the black evil that lurks within.
The gentle breeze of your presence engulfs me
Leaves me shivering in the cold, wanting more
Than just this lonely existence without you.

Turning your back on what we had, you left
Without a word, with just one more lingering kiss
That stays with me for the rest of all time
Reminding me of what I had, what I lost,
When I let you leave me here without saying goodbye
Giving up the fight, content to forgo the forever
That long ago we promised ourselves we'd find.
I see you standing there beyond the horizon
Waiting for something more, something more than me.

Although it's officially untitled, I refer to it as "Horizon" in my own mind since I wrote it to HYDE's song "Horizon".
