Heart Splitting

Give them strength, as this day unfolds
Not all dreams are made of gold

Sunlight needles my windowpane
I hope to God they won't be shamed

Blue skies, butterflies, autumn leaves fall
Grey skies, inherent lies, my heart stalls

An echoing call, a plea for love
A lone male voice quavers up above

She makes her decision. Indecision.

Two souls caught in the palm of a hand
By her breath their hair is fanned

A halo of misconception
Let them seek redemption

Babe sleeps, clutched in a net of bubble wrap
Baby mislaid in confused mishap

One heart shatters, into clichés he can no longer doubt
In the darkness guilt pours out
