antidote to shattered heart

 

 

I called upon the classic dreamer
for the antidote to shattered heart

I called upon this classic dreamer

in hopes of a brand new start

I'll entrust you with these memories
and disrobe down to the bone
if you'll just take these yearnings
and keep them from my home

condemned to fear forevermore
as indigo drips down
from flashbacks of the disco lights
shattered by his frown

cover me in lavender
and I'll succumb to peace
be genuine in prayer
that this nightmare may finally cease

I'll drink your magic - dreamer
every drip and drop
upon my lips it glistens
if only hurting now will stop

will fragments of a broken heart
come together soon as one
if I devote myself to you today
under this the midday sun

haste upon my shattered heart
please before I come undone

haste upon this shattered heart

before I meet the cherished one

    Great use of words here, I couldn't tell that you had used a wordbank option. I loved the use of the words condemned in the sentence and indigo, this was a great piece.
