A Cry In The Night©
by Joalla K 3-7-97
The night is long, dark and cold,
But I hold close to my heart thoughts of old.
Thoughts that they have tried to take from me,
Thoughts that have helped me to remain free.
The night is long, forever dark,
Yet my thoughts of you are like a spark.
A spark of light in this dreary night,
A spark that keeps me from taking flight.
The night is cold and oh so long,
I think of you to help keep me strong.
Strength of heart is what keeps me,
Strength to go on in the lonely night that greets me.
Oh night of nights,
Oh night of fears,
Oh night of wants,
Oh night of tears.
Take me from this cursed life,
Help to end my life of strife.
If I cant have the one I love,
Take from me, take all I'm of.
Hear me now love of my life,
End the pains that cut like a knife.
Reach out to me and hold me dear,
As I feel my end is oh so near.
Near you ask, tis how I feel,
My life is empty, no longer real.
Tis you that can end my deep felt pain,
By letting me know how much you love me again.
I kick and claw, I refuse to give in,
This is not how I wish my life to end.
I love you deep and that love is strong,
With you and beside you is where I belong.
Come to me and hold me tight,
Help me rid this fear of night.
Love me, need me, want me true,
Pull me close as I would you.
Show me that our love is strong,
Take me to where I belong.
In your mind, and in your heart,
Within your soul, is my new start.
Hear my screams of nightmare woes,
See my tears that freely flow.
In this retched place of dark,
Upon my soul they make their mark.
Help me, Help me, hear my cries,
Come to me, prove wrong their lies.
Show them that our love is real,
Let them know just how you feel.
Save me from the woes of dark,
Help me feel your love, oh Hark!
Hark! Hear my cries,
Come kiss my tears from my eyes!
Lift my chin, come hold me close,
Of my blood come take come take your dose.
And if with you, I'm not to be,
Nor have your love to shine on me,
Then drain my blood and set me free!
