The memory of you
crying in my arms
torments my brain.
The tears burn my skin.
What do they symbolize?
Are they a ploy
to get me closer...
to see if I shall weep too?
Do I remind you
too much of him?
As you lie in my arms
A single tear roles
down my cheek
exploding onto your nose.
You look up,
We gaze into each others
eyes, wondering why?
I cannot hold your gaze for long,
for soon my eyes will be filled with
the watery sadness,
I know that
your love will not be mine for long,
it can't be, you still yurn for him.
I just want to be able to hold you
for at least one more night.
