A Love Note Reminder
A battle for my soul once more begun
Where darkness threatens the radiant sun
When despair was launched, I was unprepared
The grief rained down as my soul laid bare
Tears fall from my eyes, burning like acid rain
Blistering my cheeks, I cry out in pain
Then I see a photo, us walking the beach
Helps me believe victory is still within reach
Another morning skirmish in the very same war
Different light, same shadows seen before
My stomach knotted like a maroon bow tie
A blade cuts through, my insides turn to sky
There in my wallet, a love note reminder
Your written words couldn’t be any kinder
My heart so broken I’m sure I must die
As darkness wraps me, I ready my goodbyes
Strapping on my armor, my wedding ring
Beating back darkness, I hear angels sing
As the day wears on, we fight for the prize
At midnight I rest, finally close my eyes
Sleep reloads the battle I’ve already fought
Another day’s search for peace will be shot
Subconscious war getting ready to start
Memories of you protecting my heart
A battle for my soul once more begun
Where darkness threatens the radiant sun
