Step Away

by er - Gemini

One step
 Away from here
One blink 
 Away from fear
So many moons have passed beyond
 With so many sorrows
A life long gone
 A monment of laughter
Ached for each day
 To ponder the thought
Of escape from all
 To ponder the thought 
A reason to fall
 I saw you smile
But your eyes wept
 I heard you laugh
But your heart bled
 Why must we all hide beneath our masks
So afraid of the world
 To be honest to our hearts
To lust if we want
 To cry when the urge hits
To speak while the world goes 'round
 I know you wonder
Your eyes are to weak
 Saddened beyond belief
They scream at me
 To help
To give
 To love
To accept
 To weep
Without saying a word
 You say a million things
You want me to save you
 To take you from this place
The paradise you seek is somewhere inside
 Somewhere I can not find
I want to give you the moon
 The sun 
And the stars
 But my magic has disolved
Faded as the wind
 It's there for a moment
Then changes it's shape
 Though when I look at you
The stars are within reach
 Cotton is your skin
Roses are you breath
 A million kisses seem not enough
To show you the joy of seeing you near
 Your beauty is fresh 
Like a new coat of snow
 So warm and comfortable
Yet so tricky and cold.....
