Walk beside me, I'll hide you from your past, Trailing on our dark scars, waiting to outlast, Our fears of years of history's eyes, misery and lies,
Now i'm sick of it, settle down and find a future, In this love's sound, glove found that finally fits, In time you'll see that honestly it feels right,
Light as a feather floating down from heaven, To land on the dark silhoutte of a man known once as Evan.
Now a name means much less for now I'm blessed, Coming to my sense for now I've found a reason,
To live for so much more, bid for all that's yours, To find it freely given, reopen every door,
Shut by past arrivals searching for a connection, finding something worse, looking amidst reflection,
Find me a martyr and I'll show them what they're missing, Why give up a soul so content to keep on living,
I rock the fence with what i'm giving, a chance to smile, While gluttons look to steal what they need through denial,
Hold me in dreams far more frail than modern sin, Rolled up affection never sold to the winner, No price matches the sacrifice of shedding blood thinner,
The dove sheds once more, dropping a feather finishing its tour, Finding a path it seemed to have traversed before,
Land in a burst of light from one man's rebirth, His first look to the sky as he prays for an end to this search.
Lowering his gaze he finds his words in vain, Why dress up beauty when my love adores you plain?

This is good. It borders on "beat" poetry, yet softened a bit.
Well done.
