Catacombs of Naked Dreams

Combing through the naked catacombs
Of past heartbreaks and skeleton bones..
Can you hear me?

Running through the barren trees
I swear I hear the roaring seas and feel...
You can't hear me.

As I tell you of my dreadful dreams,
Selfish times and lonely things I feel...
Will you listen?

Every inch of every day that overtakes me
Hoping for something it's not
Reaching out for anything
Hurting with each dangerous thought.

The desolate area in which I may escape
Comes with whispers of weakness I can not erase.
I wonder the corridors that I have a made...
To feel the beauty of feeling safe.

And though it seems like a labrynth I walk
I follow the catacombs to where they drop
And find the beauty I had longed to see
Staring right in front of me.

And she whispered. "I hear you."
