Why, dear girl,

are those tears falling from your eyes?

Those eyes of yours,

should only see clear,

with occasional tears of joy,

trickling down your cheeks.

 

I do not know what words,

will solve this heartache for you.

But my arms are always open, for you.

When you fall into them, know I will catch you.

Tuck you safely against my body,

kiss the top of your head,

and I won’t let you go until you tell me.

Until you tell me to…

 

When you are in my arms,

I will give you all of the world,

that lies in the palm of my hands.

I will tell you, exactly how it feels.

This is not a time for secrets,

this is a time to tell you,

I won’t let anything hurt you.

 

Let this hum cascading from my lips,

and the warmth of my arms,

kiss away those tears.

When you frown,

you make the Angels want to cry.

The cold rain would fall like sorrow,

onto our warm bed of memories.

The worst tragedy,

in our world,

is to see an Angel cry.

So, Angel,

dry your eyes.

 

I keep my promises,

till death do I part.

When my eyes glance at yours,

I smile, a real smile,

for the first time in years.

Hold you closer to me,

as we look into the horizon of the night sky,

our song playing in our ears.

I lean forward and whisper into your ear,

“I promise you that tomorrow,

will be a better day.”

You say, you say…

“As long as there is a tomorrow with you,

I am ok.”

 

We stare into the stars,

each one brighter then the next,

with the moon glowing at us.

No one can find us here,

in the dust trails we have left the present,

to catch up with the past.

Just the two of us,

sitting on hope,

looking up at the stars,

listening to our song.

As I hold you close,

I will never let go,

until you tell me…
