You don’t have to give a reason why <br />I would never wish to see you cry <br />And if I could be with you tonight <br />I would open up my arms and hold you tight <br /> <br />Sometimes I dream of you saying Goodnight <br />Only to wake up without you by my side <br />Dreams can turn into nightmares sometimes <br />Rain drops from skies which ravens fly <br /> <br />Thoughts of you relapse in my mind <br />Shattered memories can be seen in my eyes <br />True love comes but once and then it dies <br />Never thinking of the pain it leaves behind <br /> <br />I have been hurt by love and survived <br />To do it all again would be unwise <br />I couldn’t see back then, I was blind <br />Your love was suicide in disguise <br /> <br />Here’s a lullaby to close my eyes <br />To go or stay, I can not decide <br />Only time will tell the day of my demise <br />Dark thoughts are siloughetted by the light <br /> <br />Tear drops on paper which have dried <br />Rivers of pain, Rivers of pride <br />Lying in the sand is a knife <br />Red stains on the handle and side <br /> <br />It is much too late, You’re out of time <br />Dreams of happiness which never bind <br />Foot prints in the sand you will find <br />Which will lead to my lonely paradise <br /> <br />Cries can be heard in the night <br />I left without saying goodbye <br />My empty heart their love could not provide <br />I could never let you see me die <br /> <br />There’s nowhere to run, Nowhere to hide <br />I’m the soul who walks with you from time to time <br />Deep In my heart you are still mine <br />Fallen Angels will sing my song, My Lullaby<br /><br />Leo Lopes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-forbidden-lullaby/
