A Constant Barrage

A Constant Barrage
by Mike Pollock

A darkness falls
My heart beat stills
A death so sweet
Your kiss can kill
Breaking down
Like ice is falling
My heart is bleeding
but still I'm calling
Inside these walls
I've painted you
Around the edges
Lies blur the truth
If I had a choice
I'd let me go
Fall to the ground
My seed to sew
Inside the course
Of a thousand days
I'll hold the reins
And attempt to stay
My spirit horse
Is begging free
She wants to know
What it is to be
Crashing down
Like bolts above
Into my head
You reign your love
It's so easy
To say goodbye
But hello means
You're by my side
