| Guardian of the Black Cove | ||||||
| Guardian of the Black Cove I'm afraid to touch you. Like pages filled with empty words I sit, stagnant Hoping for a glimpse into the future, Where waves and bluffs Create beautiful music together And I can see the sun again. Guardian of the Black Cove I hurt so much inside. Like houses resting side by side Vacant and cold, But more out of reach Than you will ever know. Where arms stretch out to some unknown Because it's the only thing that feels like home. Guardian of the Black Cove I feel so alone. I'm naked in a world full of ovvercoats and hats, Like burning feet that can't escape the sidewalk, But want so desperately to swim To the bottom of the sea. I yearn to hold infinity. |
