    UNTITLED (none needed)

    When love's tapestry
    Is woven with threads of shame
    Pin%#&@$!s of a needle
    Leaves tears that forever stain
    Is this really you
    Or just a cruel and unusual game
    Digging in the past
    For any skeletons that remain

    Oh, thought I heard angels cry
    But it was just the thought of you
    Passing by
    Never stopping
    With no calm 2 impart
    Carrying a crown once regally worn
    Now resembling
    A crown of thorns

    Two hearts speaking
    At the very same time
    A cacophony of wasted sound
    Never cleansing the mind
    Doubts of fairly tales
    When falling asleep
    Counting the last worthless evening
    Ignoring the sheep

    When love's majesty
    Falls victim 2 a coup d etat
    Is the overthrow recored in the universe
    Or is it Inshallah
    Pray that you'll find a reason
    2 remain together still
    Not remain apart
    Against God's will

    Oh, thought I heard
    Your children crying
    But they haven't said a word
    I guess they remain upset
    Finding solace in their solitude
    Under the cellar steps

    Two hearts reaching
    But on different frequencies
    Never learned to accept honey
    Without being stung by angry bees
    Like the honecomb
    Once a vibrant home
    Now a castle in the wastelands
    Once love has flown


    Written for my man Will and his estranged wife..peace and love 2 you both
