Eden
By: Pterota
First 3 lines of first and fifth stanza from Sarah Brightman's "Eden"

For Diana

Did you ever think of me as your best friend?
Did I ever think of you?
I'm not complaining
I never tried to feel, I never tried to reach
I never tried to be your Eden
Your Eden

You heard me an ocean away
Wish I wasn't dying
Can you hear me crying?
The bleeding rose you sent to me
Drew blood to fall into despair

The raven, our messenger
Was caught between the madness
The madness that was you and I
My tears washed her ashore
Our raven that became my sorrow

Hands stretched forth, I reached
But the doves had lifted you away
I was alone on the shores of sadness
You were dust in the wind
Before my soul could cry out

Did I ever think of you as my enemy?
Did you ever think of me?
I am complaining
I never tried to feel, I never tried to reach
I never tried to be your Eden
Your Eden
