Between


As the light erupts across the sky
your morning has just begun
as cries of avow are birthed
I sing to you my little one...
'tis not at this extreme
'tis between

You can endure no more of this abundance
Your girths limit has been reached
Ill content and miserable
I say to you my child...
'tis not at this extreme
'tis between

Your barren face has lost its color
You are barely there at all
starving and desperate
I reason with you...
'tis not at this extreme
'tis between

Not a thought for anything else can be
she is all that you will see
obsession overcomes thee
Will you hear my plea...
'tis not at this extreme
'tis between

Her softest touch has torn your heart apart
madness grips you to your core
grief has manifest rage
listen to my screams
'tis not at this extreme
'tis between

As the light dims across the sky
your twilight finally arrives
as sorrow finds its rest
I utter my last goodbye...
'tis not at this extreme
'tis between
