Believe In Me

My life is shattered, and is still not found
A single shard.
But what could matter if I have a whole...
Yet whole heart.
You haven't turned away,
And it has kindled hope in me.
Again so frail... But soon to be

My only light
On the way, so long -
Through endless nights
I'm tired of being strong.
I wouldn't ask
Anything more
Just to believe in me...
Don't let me go...

I come to you, revealing my true face,
Without a mask,
Months passed, but time has failed to kill my faith,
And never ask
Why I'm still here. I have always been - will always be;
Im strong for you
If you're strong for me.

So many things
I never told...
It's like a quiz,
Still left unsolved.
It's - yesterday. Let's leave it then.
I know: you'll forgive,
You'll understand.

Each second, spent beside you, I am me,
I'm not afraid
In minute weakness, like they all, you'll see
A statue, frail.
I know everytime my eyes get blind
You see the truth.
You know me inside
Better than I do.

You're my only light
On the way, so long -
Through endless nights
I'm tired of being strong.
I wouldn't ask
Anything more
Just to believe in me...
Don't let me go...

So many things
I never told...
It's like a quiz,
Still left unsolved.
It's - yesterday. Let's leave it then.
I know: you'll forgive,
You'll understand.

I felt the hope in this, yet painfully so...taking on a personal dimension...collaborating with the dark side of love, making it dramatically packaged.  Enjoyed

Wow - this feels so familiar... probably because it looks just like what I see in the mirror some days.... but I'm with you ~~~ "It's - yesterday. Let's leave it then."
We go on.
Excellent work. I like the raw emotional feel to it. It is something that makes one's heart beat a bit harder than normal.
