Dissolution

What takes your pain away?
The healing words I failed to say?
A penance I could not pay
To bring you home and keep you safe?
And so many times I tried
To stop my mind, or make it right
In the end I failed to decide
And lost the way as fear took guide

And now the night's begun
As pink Moon burns over setting Sun
Indication that the day is gone
With nothing changed, yet still we long
And I tried to rationalize
It's better off a compromise
Perhaps another place or time
Can light your way back to mine
