One More Time
One more time, I tell myself, just one more
her words slither inside me trying to slam our door
precisely picked perfectly written and rhymed
my tears well up again as if it were the first time
Gazing out into the last rays of the setting sun
candles lit prayers unanswered alone as one
beseeching darkness be dismissed of your duty
begging for just one more chance at this beauty
A glimpse I swear I saw a glimpse of her
A scarlet streak silhouettes across her hair
revealing stolen moments from yesteryear
hidden behind the guise of days spent apart
trying to hold together a fluttering fragile heart
One more time I tell myself just one more time
our simple love can begin to grow and bud sublime
