Crescent Flames by Polar Eyes published on 2022-11-04T03:32:29Z Crescent Flames A flawless night we huddle close Flames from coal wish to entertain us Speak to us whispering songs Holding on to thoughts along The gaps between where you have gone And mindless games where we once played Corroding sight increasing might Of foes that face our forces tonight Eager to fight and take our peace Fortress raids to claim our space We watch as they invade our minds Brake through the lines of our own kind Collapsing under the cloudy skies We’ve failed to fortify in time But I’d still rather try and die Than hear the piercing cries nearby Praying I’m not too far gone Reminding me of that one song Retreat that we might fight again A sin i’m willing to confide in Pretending I’m not the one to blame I never knew just what to say But I will love you just the same Trust me this day, I’m truly here to stay The cozy nights felt bitter still Rocking chairs not holding still But even though our circumstances Saddens sap in saggy branches Birds will sing before it happens Bringing dawn for all the masses Sunlight flowing far beyond Like glowing sparks we carry on To warm the hearts of evening stars Consoling scars generating heat Soaking up drops of bravery Holy flames sincerely changed me I’m so blessed to have you baby Right here next to me Text me. Test me. I see you’re my destiny You’ve always been the best to me Except for when you breathe insanity Slippery slides and dangerous tides Grudges painfully reside Hurtful hymns solemnly hide Shrieking silently through the night Changed by fire fierce design Faithless factions threaten lives Wreaking havoc to inspire Broken hearts left to inquire Forget tonight and doze to sleep Like a symphony but asleep Incredibly still next to me I’ll be better, just you see I am yours forever
