Your Face

To you i turned with the three word phrase
Thinking one sweet and kind may grow grace
You drank it in like dry earth drinks rain
While i myself was just touching in vain

There you were on your knees, with rivers in your eyes
My heart's seed turned to weed, harvested it sighs
When i couldn't feel, i touched to make love
To make it and create it, without seeing the Dove

Your face, two oceans
Your face, in fire
Your gaze, full of sorrow takes me back to those
Days when you were still mine

I left you all too soon, unable to commit
Turned cold as the moon, when your flame was lit
Hurt you more than once, then tried to make amends
Eventhough i tried for months, you wanted to be just friends

Now You live inside my bones, my heart and in my hands
Your shadow always roams, the new love lands
The burden of regret, the error of my ways
Whish we'd never met, for everywhere i see 

Your face, two oceans
Your face, in fire
Your gaze, full of sorrow takes me back to those
Days when you were still mine

I try to see beauty in queens and servants alike
To melt my heart's icicle and rekindle the light
That is meant for real love; it never burned for you
But everytime i do,
all i find is a distaste,

and all i see is

Your Face
