These Vulnerable Eyes

Times of truth, darkened days
They sashay, sway, parade...
Faces, friends, feathers fine
Shadows once embraced in mine...

It happens to those with eyes awake
For love it happens all the time...
The pain burns with lessons learned
The wound will close, the scar reminds...

I'm too lazy for jealousy
I make love to tragedy...
I've bled for success
Prefer the failure, and be blessed...

It happens to those with eyes awake
For love it happens all the time...
The pain burns with lessons learned
The wound will close, the scar reminds...

In the heart a guardian stands
There was a child with love in her hand...
That child taken childish revenge
Bowing out is not an end...
Down inside my faithful solitude
Ensconced in a wondrous beautitude...

It happens to those with eyes awake
For love it happens all the time...
The pain burns with lessons learned
The wound will close, the scar reminds...
