Ebb Tide...

Water never stops
even when contained
The heart continues to beat
though the soul is chained
Tears keep time with rain,
keep my timing clear
Life leaves by the drop,
escaping through my tears
How long till i run dry,
a broken water hourglass,
or will i just evaporate
dissolving into mist?...
Blood pumps through my veins
but no longer have the soul
to have searched for so long in darkness
only to be scorched by the light
leaves me unbelieving
leaves me, throwing down my sword
i no longer have the fight
Words forever,
intentions are never enough
when one questions love;
there is nothing...
