Sapphire

I’ve wanted this all along

A concrete beating heart

A landscape I can bleed up-on

This dark city my breeding ground

Nails within the darkened sand

Artificial light ascends

Clarity of vision breaks the shackling of days ahead

Taken from the Solace of home

Veins reclaimed by hardened stone

Take me from my solace

This dark city’s mine again

I’ve wanted this all along

This dark city my breeding ground

The Streets are whispering

The hope is in my veins

Clawing and deprived,

A hopeful heart will waste

Every moment of precious time

Helpless as I watch my dreams divide

I’ve wanted this all along?

A concrete beating heart

A landscape I can bleed upon

This dark city my breeding ground

Artificial light ascends

The path of which my heart accepts
