Forgiveness

In the Morning

There is a facade that accompanies the night

Desires take hold and the animals emerge 

The beat of the music matches the beat of our hearts

Bodies collide in rhythmic movement  

A girl looks into the eyes of a man

He sees her body and longing eyes

Trusting the night she follows

Grooming me all along

For when the night fell black

A girl said no and man said yes

You say how cute I am as I try to cover my body

Asking you not to but you persist

With darkness in your eyes you inform

I will hurt you if I have to

A girl no longer, innocence gone

As I sleep you wake me again

I will hurt you if I have to

But morning always comes

As the light hits your face you know

That darkness took your soul

Desperately wishing that the night was mislead

I ask, "Whats wrong?"

As you glance to me you no longer see the girl

Reply, "How horrible was your night?"

You knew what I did not, you knew what you did

I wonder if now the sun shines on your darkness

Or if you have let the darkness consume 

A woman built from wreckage speaks to the morning 

I know the darkness that most haunt you still

But I will not bow to the night

Only my forgiveness holds me now

I set the night free
