Perpetual Emotion

you're caught up in the rhythm of perpetual emotion

love circles like the moon and stars in the sky

bleeding for the magic, getting scarred from the incision

relying on your senses;

always letting your defences down.

a lump you try to swallow; it will leave you feeling hollow and cold

hollow and cold...

...

still, you're caught up in the rhythm of perpetual emotion...

love circles like the moon and stars in the sky.

"If the moon can shift an ocean;

surely it can move the human heart..."          love to all, d....
