My Love

Don’t give me hope
Just write my tomorrow
Don’t give me faith
Please hold my breath
Don’t give me love
But write the heart undone

A dream of a child, a purest wish through the dawning sky
Lullaby for a dreamless man across the awe of a darkest night

Unwritten tale to caress his heart
Mad dreams to touch his mind
Deep world, imaginary skies
Dreamers always care of song in time

Don’t give me time
But draw my life
Don’t leave me be
Just hold me tight
Caress my dream
Bury my fear
And take my heart for the night to share

Scaretale for a child within
Mad imaginary dance in the silver moon’s embrace
Storytime will tell a dream
Caressing still every call of my last breath
Day leaves are fallen for the dark bound of grace
Cascading still for lost memories within

Come again to write a tale
Mad and real
Come to tell the beauty’s farewell
I bear within
Through every dream
You’ve dared to enter once

Come again and make my fear undone
Comfort me with another storytime
Play the lullaby for my never healed heart

Don’t give me hope
Embrace my love
Don’t give me faith
Hold my last breath
To feel the truth
I held for you

I shared your dream
With my deep feel
For lost heart of awe
I bear still another dawn
For your song undone
For you, my love
