Untitled 2

Wishing away the long, cold days
The distance between here and there
One heart, one soul, torn apart
By miles and lies and hatred
The truth struggles to the surface
A flower, reaching for the sunlight
Pushing through the cracks left behind
By the pouring rain, beating down
Washing away the desire to fight
When it all comes apart at your feet
Suffocating any shred of hope
In a landslide of distrust and sorrow
Willing the clouds to part, only for a moment
Allowing the sky to peek through
Or begging the earth to open up
Swallow you whole and end the pain
If only to bring peace of mind…
But it never ends
