My existence is a lake of salty tears,
The surface calm and clear.

In the depth of the lake blood runs.
No saviour or hope from the golden sun.

My body a glass maze,
Never quite meeting that sunlight gaze.

My life misted with blackness
My blue eyes leak everlasting sadness.

Drowning, drowning my soul is dying.
Won’t you come to me soaring and flying?

Rescue my flooded emotions.
Will you cross that wide blue ocean?

I don’t know how much longer I will last
Please help me and do it fast.

Save me and wrap with gentle care
Give me all the red love you can spare.

Even through all this lingering pain
Your love is something I cannot gain.

So I sit in this dark room
And gaze at the unknown vast moon

…you will never come flying,
So my heart will continue dying.

I realize you’re my secret fantasy, from an old book.
My heart you snatched and took.

Be here and not over there
So come and show me that you care.

I will be waiting patiently here
Whenever your ready come and take away my fear.
