Blameless

 

It’s not my fault

That moonlight softened

When you came around my door,

It’s not my fault

My dreams are often

Silent prayers

I’ve waited for.

 

It’s not my fault

Your kiss awakened

Deeper yearnings in my soul

I’m not to blame

That time was shaken

From the moments

That we stole…

 

It’s not my fault

My heart has murmured

Your name into the stars

It’s not my fault

The echoes trembled-

It’s just the way 

These things are…
