Torment

Here decide: a moment in your eyes?
Hands tied so we look to the skies.

Why?

The minutes crawl, as i race to your door.
What’s this for? and i just want you more.

With no surprise, when face to face we shy.
And you’re on my side? and you i can’t deny.
Not the same. at first all was a game.
There’s no shame, only you can tame…

This torment, such torment.
I’m living with you, but you’re not in my life.
Our time is an empty canvas, awaiting our heart’s command.
Another moment closer is another moment’s end.

Apologize? in a moment’s time.
Still alive? she’s calling through in lines.
What she’d said, still racing through my head.
No intent? just a harmless enchantment?

Our lives are an empty canvas,
But carry our past demands.
Any other moment forward,
Leaves all other moments damned.
