beneath these starving eyes

behind these eyes my entire soul cries
I'm holding onto my memories all alone in my head...
so silent are the nights spent regretting the moments
I took for granted,moments when I was eaten by fear and pride
what if I had told you what I felt
would it of changed our destiny
I picked a midnight rose
it's fragrances so strong in the spring air
each petal as fragile as that first moment you discovered love
but a thorn pricked my innocence
exposing me to a guilty conscience and wayward dreams
beneath this crimson sky so red
fresh wounds bleeding away what's left of my soul
I'm tattered, torn and battle scarred but life goes on
from beneath these starving eyes utter anguish
as I dream of love
