To You

To you, only to you
I write a verse in midnight gloom
Like ocean deep I’m walking through
Oh, my life, you played my soul
In every song dwelling in heart

For you I play this night
Pure song of the tide
A prayer to light
Flowing through life

Sweet dawn will call
The moment of love
Innocence white still singing unborn
Flying on wings of silence ungone

To you, my angel of life
I write this lullaby
To shadow the dawn
One sight through your eyes
Still endless ride
A moment unborn

For you, my heart, for you
Mountains and seas
This night paints with blue
All the world I cherished a dream to be

Be merciful, love, your arrows are sharp
What soul will survive, but means death to the heart
Heal the scars you left for me once before
Be my cure, love, but never my venom to die of

Suffocating in waves
I burn for your love
My angel of night
Unnamed to the world
Though unveiled to me
Dear face of my heart
Eternal dream of me
