Farewell
I can't cry any more
Wind kisses my face to dry
The fallen tears I adore
And you're so quiet as you sleep
I know you're smiling
I can't weep
Any more
Because my tears are dried
You've evened up the score
Weep for me when I am gone
Though you're here I'm all alone
In my mind I know you'll go
I'm prepared to go below
Fallen glances -
Shaded eyes
How can I know you care?
I thank you for my sleepless nights
When I lay awake, your eyes in my head
Stargazing, trailblazing
Smiling eyes
So promise me you'll never go
Keep the tears at bay
I'll keep a secret from myself
And never admit you left today
