Ordeal

Your screaming soul, how you have tried to touch me
 Enfolded like a desert wind
 Hot dry dust in the flower
 Push me away
 Sink down to the bottom with me
 Your glare to cover me
 Hold this memory, this passes by
 All my sight and sound, all that I passed by
 Every tear shed, another day passed
 Every drop of rain a flower daid
 We stare out of a portal into a desert
 The colour of a rose at sunset
 Shivering in the heat
 Our minds wander across the sand
 A fountain in the courtyard
 Turn away as love fades in the shades of sun - drenched sienna
 You say the sun will rise to burn you away
 Time decayed in my veins here
 I am done, dry in the dust
 Centuries of ancient longing
 Time and again I loved you when you crushed me
 Don't turn away
 An image of you, prone on my doorstep, is deep in my heart
 Watch closely and live
 One with the sand that passes us by
 Call out my name
 Lie silent in darkness
 Reach out you hand, feel the teeth of fear
 My death
 I stand in stone
 You want nothing more
 Stand here in stone
