Cherish
Two circular views of
Blue with a gray shade
So captivating
More than you know

False perceptions
That brought forth these questions
Of truth, love, and hope
Now that you're injuring
I carry you with me
Just please hold on

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to
Sever our loss
A redefine pulse
Through the iris

Love's not all lost
But it's nailed to my cross
And crucified all that I've held on
To be awaiting
Anticipating a touch such as yours

False affection
A spawn of neglecting
A love, lust, hoax
Please understand me
That now where you're standing
Is closer then I'd hoped

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to
Sever our loss
A redefine pulse
Through the iris

Your iris
Your iris

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to
Sever our loss
A redefine pulse
Through the iris

Disappear and dissolve
A weakening wall
Will one day fall
It's wise to
Sever our loss
A redefine pulse
A new iris
