A missed opportunity

So close, yet so far Your light comes and goes A hot and untouchable star Like the highs and the lows Innuendo flies in the face of my fear The words tear a hole in the soul Ambiguity is the lesson paid for a tear The actions can't compare and pay a heavy toll. Truth is a warrior whose smile is gone Can lies fill the void for a moments high Pain can not equal the destruction that is spawn Will the tears of love lost be wiped with a sigh If I was a time instead of a place Hidden sadness of a sharp levied slap The clock having moved to reveal its face? Compassion's child, a shield to your trap
