Anchorless

With Blessed Grace

Anchorless


a face so weathered and abused 
eyes are constant / wide open but blind 
desperately seeking 
with every grasp falling farther 
screams break the silence 
his words echo, haunting every move 
i never heard your heart break 
as it fell from my hands 
your tears are mine 
dying with every empty night / so lucid now 
selfish ambitions shielded truth 
saving myself i watched you fall 
and with this blade i close my eyes 
will my blood rushing save your life 
you bear the force of every storm 
with blessed grace 
you are the river, i am the rain
