  nothing held us close
except the dust that
tore the memories in two
as the lines exploded into
thoughts that were wished
into a burning candle
of so many tears crying
so bad that the nightmares prayed
for a happy dream finally come true.

  the rainbows slaughtered
the master piece painted
into the midnight as the
Angels danced the kisses away
that fell from the hearts
that only grew cold
almost into a deep wound
that cut like a knife
through my soul tonight.

  purged in the depth of a photograph
I crushed the stained glass windows
that once held my Faith so pure
but now everything I've ever believed in
has faded away
except for my love of Country Music
and the love that my addiction
of my Alcohol that holds my noose
so tight on me
of a "catch 22"
that the strings never broke away.

  I've felt the heart ache
and I'm just plain
tired of my heart growing cold
into a heart dripping black
I wish that one day someone could
forgive me for all of my wrong doings.

  but even though I ask for
your forgiveness everyday
I don't think that
even God could save me
from my Salvation
broken into the loneliness
of a temptation touched
from a kiss from an Angel.
