Prayer
© A long, long time ago... est 1994

Crystal green exuberance,
Deadened by despair.
He wished, he hoped, he loved, he lost -
And now, he's solitaire.

In the window of his mind,
He saw the blackness of alone,
But in the blindness of his trance,
He noticed not the light she shone.

Flaming red in spirit,
Yet knows not what she feels.
Never remembering what she lost
Nor strengths that she could wield.

Purest innocence was ripped to shreds
She had no thoughts of love again.
For the longest time that she has known,
She's paid for another's sin.

Thrown together, in a mix
For trying to stop the pain.
Trying not to fall into the darkness,
The insane.

She travelled down a path she's known
But only once has been -
And in the mirror of his soul,
She found her heart again.
