My starry, starry knight<\/p>\n
Swirls of black<\/p>\n
Swirls of blue<\/p>\n
I thought he was my dream<\/p>\n
come true.<\/p>\n
Captured so long ago<\/p>\n
By his smile, by his face<\/p>\n
By his seeming endless grace<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now there\u2019s no star<\/p>\n
No light<\/p>\n
No way to live my life<\/p>\n
Only darkness<\/p>\n
Only pain<\/p>\n
Night after day of endless rain.<\/p>\n
Where\u2019s my castle<\/p>\n
Where\u2019s my pride<\/p>\n
Where\u2019s my carriage ride<\/p>\n
to leave this life<\/p>\n
flames of black<\/p>\n
All Around<\/p>\n
Faceless others without a sound<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Burned by the light from beyond<\/p>\n
Singing my lamenting song<\/p>\n
Praying each night for a way<\/p>\n
To make this my last day<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sadness in the morning light<\/p>\n
To find I\u2019m still . . .<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Alive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
