Once More

Now that you are real and no longer a hungry ghost

I have to say from my soul that what scares me the most

Is how easy I know it would be to fall in love with you

When the fire still burns even after what we've been through

This morning, when I held you in my arms for the first time in years

There was a boy who felt like he was coming home emptied of his fears

As we lied there entangled, it felt just like before we were cut apart

And it opened my eyes to see how you have always lived in my heart

All it took was just a nervous kiss on a cold December night

To push aside the shadows of time with the glow of your soft light

There's a flower growing from the grave
