Lost was love, condition foretold <br />Inside a private moment bluttered <br />When you drove me home <br />whispers of pain cutting the night <br /> <br />Voice and Face played poker <br />with you in my heart <br />words describing the thunder <br />pulling us apart <br /> <br />Nothing left but to leave <br />you sought me out <br />An embrace paid for eyes <br />filled with rain that night <br /> <br />Emptiness filing worn-out shoes <br />Heart on the brink of self-destruction <br />I wanted so much to stay <br />Wrapped up, home in your arms <br /> <br />I was not your shelter <br />As the rain pelted down <br />around our bound relationship <br />Splintering into pieces<br /><br />Lillian B.
