Lilted Lament

Spent

Fire

Screams

Love

Problems

Curses

Resentment

Pain

Your poor strong heart

Crushed to powder in the wind

Whisked away by my mistake

I was wrong

I can say that now

I can see your pain

It keeps me up through the night

Words can’t say

How much I feel

How much I wish

I could make it go

Away

Words can’t say

How much I feel

How much I wish

I could wash it all

Away

Initially wrote this as the pre-chorus/chorus for a song. Made my audience cry.
