I was 7 and you were 9 ( Read more... )

Spend all your time waiting ( Read more... )

I'm lying awake again ( Read more... )

Facing the sun
we greeted the dawn
and sang
with hearts full of love

Facing each other
we whispered a promise
and smiled
with hands clasped together

Facing the wall
I shivered from cold
and sighed
with a mind full of doubt

Facing the door
you carried your things
and left
without saying goodbye.

Where, oh where is
my sad, silent night?
Where I jumped
from shadow to shadow...

Where, oh where are
the stars burning bright?
When I counted
and named each one...

Where, oh where is
the glow of moonlight?
Who listened to
my song of despair...

Why, oh why does
the sun beat upon the day?
Which forces me
to shield my eyes.

A tiny prayer whispered
from parted lips
glimmering sunlight
reflecting the tiny drips

Tiny bumps and a shiver
it's only the wind
blowing steadily
currents moving through the limbs

A tiny light fading
all that remained
booming, the thunder
hear a voice in the rain

Tiny tears falling
from heavy eyes
glistening droplets
breaking down the disguise

It was only one tear as he
held me close to him
my head against his chest
I wasn't the one crying

It was only one tear as the
night breeze blew my hair
softly landing on my cheek
He wasn't the one dying

If I could tell the world just one thing, it would be "We're all okay and not to worry, 'cause worry is wasteful and useless in times like these." I won't be made useless, won't be idle with despair. I gather myself around my fate, for light's the darkness most fear ( Read more... )

For so long we stood on the shore ( Read more... )
