Another sleepless winter night...
I'm counting seconds, all alone.
Obscure, just like the candle's light,
Are dreams of what is still unknown.

And, waiting for the dawn coming,
I hear your voice through misty thoughts.
My heart is torn; it's bleeding - loving,
And left unsaid is just one word.

The pearls of lonely, genuine tears
Are sadness only you can see.
I need, like air to breathe, to hear
You still believe... believe in me.

You're close and far; it's sweet and bitter,
My strength is you - your sorrow's mine.
My poison turns to something sweeter
With every glance of dear eyes.

Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight.........

very personal and powerfully emotive 'write!'

I am particularly fond of:

"You're close and far; it's sweet and bitter,
My strength is you - your sorrow's mine.
My poison turns to something sweeter
With every glance of dear eyes."

applause!!...

P.S.: and, as I believe I mentioned once before,
         I REALLY love you choice of 'P.I.P.-land'
         UserName (ID)...very effectively 'poetic!'
