The One

Oaths ash all lies
We veiled upon
Where heart desires dark nights
Quivering long
Through the silence starborn

Towers we rise never recall
A memory sweet we wish to undone
By a sight, slightest whisper of time
Downfalling remorse through dream of long life

Childish fear
The truest one
Tiny heart
The most devoted one
To recall a memory deep
Oh, a precious one
Through the dusk of withering life
Upon a dream cascading on asleep eyes

Doors drawn unlocked
Towers fallen apart
For a dream, deep blue sea
Quivering in a flow still within

Pounding heart will forever hope
For finding once forlorn home
Till the end of last withering dawn
