Patience

from Invirtue by Aphir

lyrics

Flowers bloomed beneath my skin when you brushed past me.
Your attention made my heart sore with hope.
I remember when your image first appeared on the walls of my mind, first dimly, then clearly defined.

Like a kiss on my eyelids, you sealed my sight and opened up my mind.
I’m only safe inside the fragile house of words that you built for me.

Overtime you left my thoughts, took form grew clearer.
Harsh reality made quick work of your virtue.
It was my mind you loved me for – or was that in my mind you loved me?
I’m not sure

But, like a kiss on my eyelids, you sealed my sight and opened up my mind
While all my senses slept sound and safely, for you were so lovely but, at last, so unkind.
