Arrow

Dear world,
I found home on your horizon,
Resting safely,
Along your shores.
I had it all,
My shelter on your island,
Never knowing,
Or asking for more.
Do you ever wonder what we could've been?
Every gift you give, gone with the wind.
We wore away the bond before it could begin.
Two halves of a soul,
Two hearts in the dark,
I held the match and you held the spark.
Two halves of a soul,
Two hearts in the dark,
So close yet so far apart.
I was the bow and you were the arrow.
Straight through the heart,
Broken apart beneath bone and marrow.
I was the air and you were the fire.
We danced in the flames til nothing remains,
Our moment expired.
Why do we destroy one another,
If there was a time we understood each other?
You know I gave you all I could,
It was never enough.
You've broken this trust,
And left me to rust,
Like I knew you would...
Two halves of a soul,
Two hearts in the dark,
I held the match and you held the spark.
Two halves of a soul,
Two hearts in the dark,
So close yet so far apart.
I was the bow and you were the arrow.
Straight through the heart,
Broken apart beneath bone and marrow.
I was the air and you were the fire.
We danced in the flames til nothing remains,
Our moment expired.
Don't let our past turn to dust.
The best memories will remember us.
I'm sorry that I let you down.
Don't let our past turn to dust.
The best memories will remember us.
I needed to let you know I wouldn't let you go.
I was the bow and you were the arrow.
Straight through the heart,
Broken apart beneath bone and marrow.
I was the air and you were the fire.
We danced in the flames til nothing remains,
Our moment expired.
