He spoke of forever
When I didn’t believe
Condemned, his own heart to be with me
Shed the tears of man wounded at war
When I protested I wanted no more

Masquerade, disguised my pain
Pushing him away; fear of the heart and all it could gain
Frightened me away
Silently beside me he still stood; believing what we shared was good
Blinded by deception, all the pain I’d seen
I didn’t let him in to where he should have been
I spoke of a pedestal in which I could not stand
A pedestal made for this man

This man…
Capable of capturing a moment in words
Able to manipulate my thoughts
And figure out the truth within my heart
Until he gave up
