Volition

This night
I know that I’m not sleeping
Too sad for love
That I’m not keeping
So alone I’ll be
My yesterdays die bleeding
Can you hear me
Do you feel me in your arms
Breathing my first death
A final taste
The breath of you
Stay
A word I could not say
Best to let this fade
Decisions
Yes they left me beating
Feel my heart
Yes it’s still bleeding
All for you
This heart
This mind
This love
You caught them
From my fall
Now I must stop the pain
Before it wills me all away
Don’t turn away
Or we will lose our lives
Brief though our time has been

So tonight
As I’m not sleeping
Know my choice
Has left me needing
All I ask is to not fear
All I need is somewhere here
Don’t let me sleep
Till I’ve done weeping
