Empty Arms

It wasn't very long ago It seems my heart does say. I felt another's beating on my breast thoughout the day. I'm lonely for its friendship and its longing and its need. I am missing all the warmth it gave its desires so to please. Arms oh empty arms, what are you holding now? They are as they would have no child. I am still... and wondering how. You see they carry sadness For nothing can replace, the beating heart of a pure child; head and shoulder of pure grace. It wasn't very long ago it seems my heart does say I felt another 's beating on my breast throughout the day. Oh empty arms longing to be filled; the memories cause tear. You are missed. Happiness has been stolen, and there is no place for bliss. With memories of the past thats gone and me the heart demands, You reclaim what has been taken, and fill your empty hands Oh its gone I know! I know! I cry! Oh! How deep the sadness be, I wish it me that died. So difficult the sore, the void, Oh one desires to sleep, and wake up just to feel the heart, the loss that made me weep. C. SwAk & L
