Above and beyond
By AJ O’Brien.
Struggling for light
my mind high and dry
seeking only solitude
beneath a crowded sky.
Madness, so enticing,
kneeling before my lover’s grave
forgive me Lord
for her soul I could not save.
Darkness, a lonely companion
my heart midnight black,
I can no longer abide
the thought of looking back.
I pierce my heart
I was so so wrong,
falling forever
beneath her empty song.
