Silent Rain
When there’s no expression of despair
Yet tears roll down the face
You know the hurt the tears reveal
Are from the deepest sacred place
The things that are of the world
When lost could never cut so deep
For all of them can be given up
But Love you have to keep
There are souls and things that I have loved
Yet our bonds were possible to part
But I find it impossible to let you go
For you are tethered to my heart
This tugging deep inside of me
Is more than I can bear
And so my soul begins to weep
From an empty lonely stare
There is nothing else that I desire
But to have you by my side
And the only reason that this won’t be
Is because my soul has died
I know that souls are immortal
So someday we will meet
Then you can mend this broken heart
As I lay it at your feet
Until that day the tether I’ll keep
Regardless of the pain
And you will know my Love was true
Expressed only by silent rain
