Lilac & Violet

Lilac flowers

And berries where we lie

Behind these violet eyes

A fire

Tragedy's child

Born into cruelty and crooked form

The hateful twist of rejection

Bends my heart

Powers volatile

Lightning awakes in a rising storm

The doors to hope and ascension

Creak apart

In the shards of the broken mirror

Many faces are shorn

In the agony I have

Been reborn

Reside in dreams of

Lilac flowers

And berries where we lie

Behind these violet eyes

A fire

No price or power

Can ever satisfy

Behind these violet eyes

A fire

Torn apart

To become a living work of art

Chaos kindled in my burning heart

Tear the creaking doors apart

My obsession and endless yearning

As our paths they align

Bound together by more than spell or sign

I'm in your dreams of

Lilac flowers

And berries where we lie

Behind these violet eyes

A fire

No price or power

Can ever satisfy

Behind these violet eyes

A fire
