Haunted Heart
Am I still haunted by the past?
Will this century, free me at last?
I know not, what will come,
Yet, I hope that it will be done.
The chains that clasp my heart,
I hope this time will come apart.
Yes, I am haunted my a memory,
That entwines it web over me,
A spider indeed by name,
Someone that should have been my flame.
The daylight for my night,
That shielded my from light.
Now, the years have gone by,
And now loneliness will die.
I will tear apart the tread rills,
That have held me still.
Awaken that long slept fire,
And relight that dying ember.
I call to my heart to take flight,
Find someone – a new angel of light,
Shed away the desperate years,
Wipe away the long burning tears,
Guide me to that which I seek,
And end my loneliness forever.
