dry your eyes
let the salty water touch your fingers
feel the icy chill
the taps flowing
the water running
what is the cause of this
my child
my angel
my life
why do you cry?
does your soul feel shattered?
does your body feel broken?
Did you let down your barrier?
The one you hold so dear
The one you yearn for
Did you let him in?
With out knowing it
Only to have a little bud grow in the barrier
To grow
To consume
Till the very essence that was there before
Fell into pieces
Like a ruin of a palace
Beautiful when alive
Haunting and chilling
Once the life is gone
And the rain falls
The palace can never be how it was before
It can be replaced…
But not as strong
Not as stable
Or it can be replaced by a different palace
One that is blacker
Colder
Chilling
Harder
Harder to crack
And fall to pieces
But the door will be harder to move
When the time comes
What palace will you chose?
Either way
My child
My angel
My life
Dry your eyes
And live to see another day
