Echoes of Your Breath

Weeping Willows

Your body twisting slowly 'round mine
And anything that passes by is time
I love you and I hate you just as much
I feel you even though we cannot touch
You dug a hole in me
Releaved the truth to see
It hurts here in my heart so tenderly
I've hidden things from you and raised my voice
Denied you the right to make a choice
Afraid of what I'd lose
I didn't speak the truth
I couldn't find the words through all the noise
I don't know how to dry your endless tears
The reason for the cross I have to bear
I'm sentenced to death
And all that is left
Are the echoes of your peaceful breath
