Become Mine (1 of 16)

 

I could hear you

caught between girl and woman

heart untrained

mind opened by grief to darkness

I saw you

skin as shimmering as the sound of your voice

face as flawless as any fantasy

I listened to your prayers

and out of the night I whispered

a little lie

heaven sent

(not fallen)

You embraced my shadow

until my song became yours

became ours

Now it is time

now is the hour

ours is the magic

mine is the power
