I heard a voice from deep within the belly of the mountains say, “I love you”, A woman’s voice, over and over again.
Pristine truth piercing through, long nights and dark days Lightning birthing through the eye, of the storm of a mind ablaze
An old reprieve, seeping through, cracks in the walls of a hunted heart Clouds of haze torn asunder, by a single thought in stark contrast, The burning of a mind aflame put to pause, By that voice …
I love you, I heard her say Echoing through the stone walls Bellowing through the ghosted halls Of my haunted heart.
I love you, growing louder now, From whisper to resounding wail
I love you From cradle to grave I love you! Hey! It’s okay.
I can’t promise I know the end In a broken world I’ll be your friend As you walk through the fire, I’ll hold your hand
Through every end we cannot mend Past blind curves and dead ends that teach us how far we can bend I promise, I’m here to stay
