If you believe in happy endings, I believe in love. I believe the Universe is sending Singnals from above. All my emotions I wear on my sleeve. From the start I knew that I would grieve. Promises were made to break.   How much more can one heart take From you. Oh, you Think nothing more will come of Tears Than water-shedding through the years with you. I am the one who can see The depth beyond your narrow need. Denials that you always claim Never live up to their fame. We lie in bed at night and cry. Silent tears, my lullaby. I wonder ever when the lies will end, As we continue to pretend, We cycle through the lies again, and again, and again.

My Lullaby
If you believe in happy endings, I believe in love. I believe the Universe is sending Singnals from above. All my emotions I wear on my sleeve. From the start I knew that I would grieve. Promises were made to break.   How much more can one heart take From you. Oh, you Think nothing more will come of Tears Than water-shedding through the years with you. I am the one who can see The depth beyond your narrow need. Denials that you always claim Never live up to their fame. We lie in bed at night and cry. Silent tears, my lullaby. I wonder ever when the lies will end, As we continue to pretend, We cycle through the lies again, and again, and again.
I wrote this in 2005. Starting out, it was inspired by British progressive rock and was going to be song lyrics, however it got to a place I liked. Too brief to be a song, I just let it be the poetry it had become.
