Crow's Love Song

Picking apart meanings written Seeking ways to fit in A mosaic of song and show It makes your skin glow An angel in every breath At every corner denying death You held my eyes But I'm haunted by past lies Yell at me to leave it all behind As if my heart's scars can be mended by rewind You want to soothe and erase the past The lights blind so fast Meanings slowly taper When written on sheets of paper What arises will surely fall I'm afraid to heed the call Your heart is a tapestry of feelings And past heartbreaks are like onion peelings Revealing a deeper layer beneath Love is truly all we have to bequeath Our crow's love song An effort to belong and be strong A mosaic of song and show Together we could truly grow Maturity has no age lock But our time together is on the clock You held my eyes And saw past my disguise The crow feasting on my heart cries That you're the harbinger of my demise I'm out of pretty words to sing Show me a crow's love song means something
