Sigh

Take my hand

Not in pity but in love

Understand

That to live we must love

Bittersweet

When you tell me

How much you care

How much you do love

But are never there

The pain in your eyes

It cries louder

Than your long drawn out sighs

As I come to see

You can’t love yourself

But more, that you can’t love me

Not even to hold out your hand

To understand

That I only wish to try

To stop your pain inside

To stop your crying eyes

And your long drawn out sighs.
