i bore a hole into your skin,
delved through the wreckage deep within to find untold beauty long hidden;
the heart that won't let the poison win.
in time my world too fell apart, succumbed to the fires i start,
and i'd walk back through them to where you are- we'd glow as we burned up like stars.
and still at my darkest, you remain, adding on my burden to your weight,
and i clung in the tightest embrace before we descend into dark space.
and they'll hear on the days we were born:
mother earth weeps, for mother earth sees the hurt we birthed within.
mother earth weeps, mother earth bleeds to fill our emptying veins
mother earth breathes, we in turn feel the love that she bestowed;
thus we share.
they'll hear on the days we were born:
mother earth weeps, for mother earth sees the hurt we birthed within.
mother earth weeps, mother earth bleeds,
and you won't let me breathe but i won't hurt you, even see you-
i'll pass on unaware, blind, grateful.
