tender twilight



a little like July



drifting idly by



grey clouds smear the sky



there is rain inside of my lullaby



telling me not to cry



breathing farewell's sigh



kissing me good-bye



the raindrops falling from on-high



as the grief streams from my eyes



the tears they crystalize





why can't I



leave it all behind



it's forever on my mind



will this be the last time?





darker, dire



is it despair or desire



taking all that is mine



love is in disguise



hiding in your smile



if only you or I...



is their nothing left to try?



is their never knowing why?



I am terrified



raindrops falling from on-high



there is rain inside of my lullaby



kissing me good-bye





why can't I



leave it all behind?



it's forever on my mind



will this be the last time?
