Alan Kabanshi - Falling shadows

How can a feeling so sweet be deceitful, and be thought wrong?
Could she be too broken that with her I can’t belong?
Am I just blind a man, with too big a desire for sight, that I blinding myself from within my means?

But yet, dreams are filled with ghosts of her image
As slowly away she rolls closer to the edge
Just then am awaked by empty feelings awaiting her belonging
And fear grips my heart lest reality presents her before another man
Hooked in my thoughts, she is what I can’t seem to forget
Her words unspoken, yell for my touch
''Explore my bosom, wake me to life for am yours and you are mine to love''
The Closer I grow to reach, further apart we become
I hike a desire to keep after her liking
But all are just fallen shadows

Each sunrise make her grow blind to my efforts
So within me, I seek liberation in expressions
As in war my heart races against its own pace
Her flashes of a smile give to a glare of a golden palace
And laughs off my utterances like it was a joke told by an idiot
Then in a beautiful sang melody of her voice
She tells me it’s not right
How stupid for a heart to betray my judgment
