There was a time, so long ago it seems...
When I could visit you, see your face
If only in my dreams
There was a tender love I did hold,
till about the age of 17.
When my world came shattering down around me,
Leaving me with only these feelings so cold.
I held true to my childhood longings and wants
For as long as possible, till the dream was shattered
By the announcement of love to another,
Now all that kept me alive, remain behind to daunt.
Childhood fears have now come true,
Shattered dreams join a broken heart
As silent tears fall from the face of a shadow
A shadow that for 14 years stuck close to you.
I never thought I'd see the day, that my angel broke my heart.
And now the pains I feel, those of lost longing and hope,
leave me once again with these feelings of emptiness.
So here I sit in my room,
Hiding behind a veil of depression and anger
As the deep void inside me threatens to overrun
And, without my angels light, I follow it without question,
How could I have known that the keeper of my heart,
Would ultimately lead me to my doom.
Holding on to something always just out of my reach,
With my many chances to confess, and maybe start a friendship,
This is what wearing the mask entails,
This is the lesson of life, that devotion has taught me.
And yet, even after I've seen it my own eyes,
There's a dim light I see up ahead,
Could it be my hope again?
No, it's the guiding light of redemption..
I'm saved from a tragic end, by some merciful angel.
Maybe my guardian, maybe a sign?
Perhaps this is another challenge set for me
Another part of my life, set to the scheme of the grand design..
It's calling, I can hear it, the tempting little darkness,
dancing just at my fingertips--like my chances at confession.
Both have strong attraction, but which is stronger, which will overcome?
There's only one way to figure out this question that plagues me.
But do I have the strength to carry on, after seeing my heart torn apar?
Will I be given the strength to carry out the plan?
I do believe I will, because even if my fate is not to be with you,
My cornflowered hair angel..
I have another at my side, I'm thankful for this, the chance to live again.
And maybe someday, soon or far away..
The mystery will be unraveled, and two hearts set so far apart
will be brought together, for a chance and a love that could be true...
