Don't. Don't cry. It
makes me suffocate
and want to die. Don't
cry. I'll cradle you through
the night and tell you a
lullaby. Those pretty eyes
shouldn't carry sad tears.
Those pretty eyes should
not carry pain. This sounds
insane but when your tears
crash to the floor. I hear
screams that seem louder
from the ones i heard in
movies from television
screens. Don't cry. Because
i don't have the power to
see your smile turn upside
down and form a frown. I
don't have the power to
leave home alone in the
middle of the night to kiss
your tears goodbye. We're
parted by distance but our
love and hearts are in the
same place. The only tears
i want to see are the happy
ones falling down your
handsome face. Where the
best of memories float on
the edge of your lids ready
to sail off free. Ready to mark
gentle earth with our history.
Because I love you I don't
want to see you sad and in
misery. Come on baby please
wipe the tears and lean
forward to kiss me* ~
