Hollow
In the moment i let go,
Will you be there to embrase?
In the empty enity i know,
And my unsafe space.
In the moment you reign,
Will you be the eyes to see?
In the hollow beat of my pain,
And the silence of me.
In the moment untold,
Shall i speak words to be true?
Or should i sit in the fold,
Of the once beaten you.
In the moment you let go,
Will i be there to erase?
In the memories we know,
And the forbidden taste.
In the moment you're chained,
Will i leave without a goodbye?
And as your blood be drained,
And my eyes no tears to cry.
In that moment you're done,
Will i weep to follow?
An unselfish heart has won,
And my soul nolonger hollow.
