Tears in the Night


Beautiful girl with tears in the night,
Reaching out with a hopeful hand.
Happiness portrayed with smiles, forced—
And passion hidden upon her lips.
Filled with desire but not able to live—
Caught will the illness true love brings,
An empty heart and her love spilled.
She speaks with an empty voice,
For her body is bound to break.
Sadness taints a timeless beauty—
A beauty the world will never know.
Fragility her curse, her laugh her blessing,
Simplicity is her only wish—
To live her life the best she can.
In the darkness, all alone,
Her hands quiver, cursed by fear—
Chest rises and falls with heavy breathing
Her last thoughts to be lost forever,
Her heart left for her alone,
As she sits fearful through the night.
