Gone Missing

Been looking for answers

Keeping questions from you

We used to lie together

No lies between us

We lived on desire

I miss waking every morning with you by my side

Oh how I long to be back there

Just dreaming of the life we’d share

Before all this worrying took hold

Now I try to feel the love

I know you once

Felt

For

Me

But it’s gone missing

Far off with your wandering mind

And …..

How can I escape the heartache

of you loving another

While I only loved you

How can I share this bed 

Knowing you shared a bed with her

Knowing she lied in your arms

While you came home and lied to me

What am I supposed to do

With all this useless desire

Where am I supposed to go

When the only home I know

Is in your arms

And …..

How can I escape the heartache

of you loving another

While I only loved you

when your hurt and your sadness sit like a stone

grey and green and too heavy to throw
blue rivers of tears, a yellow desert of fears
your broken heart pierced upon the weather vane
it's rusted cast iron commanded by the wind
when you just don't know where to go

if you've found yourself spinning with no legs to get up and go
then come to me my friend
i'll know where you are and what it's like to be you
i've seen that darkness too
it can swallow you up and pull you down
to the bottom of its' deep well of lies

fight your hardest my sweet and keep taking breaths
there is no fire that burns as bright as the fire of truth
so no matter what you find or how hard it may be to look
it's the only way to survive

get up my pony  your spindly legs are strong
stronger than you know
jump those fences now and be on your way
a greener pasture waits for you

tomorrow might be 100 days away
that's ok you'll be alright
just keep on searching and don't give in to the wolves who told you those lies
just get up my pony and ride
get up my pony
love is on your side
a greener pasture waits for you
