no gods

Breathless moments out of time Heartache and sorrow all rolled into one By the soundless melody of A heart left broken and alone. The tears coursing down a path So many have already traveled A now familiar journey takes her there To the point where tears mean nothing Where not even the cleansing of A barren soul brings soles And when all of passion and love is spent And what are left are merely ashes In an abandoned fireplace And you have to walk back alone across The desert of destruction Then you truly understand That no man is different than another That whichever pedestal you’ve placed him on Never made him the god you thought him to be And when all this is done You ask yourself will you love him Just the way he is iniquity and all Or will you spend your life searching for nothing On a road leading nowhere. Or will you once and for all understand That love harbors none of evil And that to truly be to truly exist You have to love and if that love breaks your heart Then let it To love is to realize the privilege in the mere act In the ability to give a little of yourself.
