Compassion To Give

Here I sink into a river of emotions It runs no deeper than my pain My cry for love is unheeded As is the deserts cry for rain
While I drift lifelessly down the stream Memories drown me from within I see us standing together along the shore I see myself diving in
You were the spark that burst into flame And I so willingly burned You were the light that blinded my eyes And still I refused to turn
Thrust into life outside our shield of love We are discovered worlds apart I search for you but you can’t feel me Crying out within your heart
I know it’s over even though we’ve just begun Compassion aching for release Still we know we’ll be together As the illusion begins to cease
