When I Night Comes

When night comes, the tears fall down my cheek
I just surrender all, and give into feeling weak
Looking up at the stars and moon hanging high above
I say these simple words to our sweet Lord above

Please God, allow tommorrow to come a little sooner than you might
So that I can escape the darkness around me and awaken in the light
Let these tears that I cry turn into a radiant smile
Ease the pain in my heart, make it fade for a while

When night comes, I miss you more than I can say
The tears fall down endlessly, even more than in the day
I wrap my arms around myself, trying to fight the chill of the cold
Always in your hand, my heart you do hold

God, have mercy on me please, hear my silent plea
Bring my lover back, set my heart free
I pray with all my heart that my heart feels your sweet love again
I miss you dearest love of mine, my most cherished friend




"you can't stop
the rain
from pouring down
can't stop the
world from turning 'round
can't stop me from
loving you
no matter
what you do"

Always in your hand, my heart you do hold
================================

that says it all ... beautifully and sincerely...
I know how hard it is to love long distance..
I hope you wont have to do it much longer... this is a touching prayer poem....

Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch

Amy darling lil sis of my heart girl is simply gorgeous, absolutely perfect. The flow of this river of words is an aching soul. Beautifully written, well done. How difficult it is to love long distance darling heart, and how proud I am of you for sticking with it although the going gets touch.

You know I love this don’t you? Of course you do since you know me sooooooooo well, I could lie you know beloved, I could say, oh you know it’s okay………. But you know this is much much better than just superb don’t you darling? Well you should do it is utterly utterly divine, and I love it as I love you, big sisterly hugs darling heart.


Love and warm stuff
As always
