The songs, That I sing alone, by my window sill And keep singing, I will.
You wouldn't wipe -
The tears, That have been shed And sleepless nights that still await ahead.
You wouldn't know -
The moments, I count through days and nights Waiting for the hour that will bring my knight.
You wouldn't feel -
The love, That keeps me alive, the desire Within myself, like a burning fire.
You wouldn't smell -
The flowers, I grew with care, in our garden To decorate your path as you near abode.
You wouldn't ever see -
The day, I'd choose to be free When I'd let it be, let you go and be me!
Written on 2nd August, 2010. Sometimes, though your world is at a standstill, you continue to live, decorate, sing, smile in hope - to bring whatever had collapsed to life again. In vain.
