The crystal tears in those wondrous eyes, A melting feeling inside, In there I see a wound so deep. Leashed, but unwilling to hide An embrace to purge the soul divine, In shadows you weep with fear. Splinters and shards of a shattered glass heart, Piercing the night with every rip so clear Solace is all I can offer. Helplessness and pain hidden deep Still in my arms you shudder, All that you have left is me. Hold you close, all consolation I can give, “I’m here” I say. But is that enough? It has to do, that’s all I have for you, ..and I whispered, “I love you, my dear.”
