Color fled from my eyes


Music abandoned my soul


I was drowning in sanity


The world became a white room with padded walls


And my own breaths the jacket that bound me


I shamed the muses with my ramblings


Aphrodite hung her head to sob


Silence the only sound I could stand


The stillness mattered no more


My heart fell onto the floor


And I left it there to beat alone


I was afraid to touch it


I was afraid to mend it


Then, you told me your fears


They were the same as mine


I found myself unafraid


Your voice became a color


Your touch became a thousand points of light


Your heartbeat under my ear the lullaby


That finally lured me to sleep


After a thousand nights under Morpheus' curse


One kiss melted the glacier around my heart


And caused my pain to wash away


Born again in your love


You saved me
