A Soul Smothered In Sympathy

A SOUL SMOTHRED IN SYMPATHY 

I need you like a rose needs rain
I need you like I need life sustaining air
I need you for my garden is now in pain
My garden and I, one mournful pair

Drip drip 
Drip on lips that lie
Drip drip
Drip from eyes that may never dry

Leaves drop
Leaves drop
Leaves that tell winter to begin its chill
while the tender taste of your lips linger still

Splash splash
Splashing in the sea that summer day
Splash splash
And  it’s strange how love can be soft or so garishly  brash

When apple blossoms bloom I fear the worst
For then was the season you said goodbye
Now in tears, leaves and seasons I’m very well versed
And to this day I can’t order my eyes not to cry

Drip drip
Drip on lips that tell the sun to glow
Drip drip
And with my many tears shall my garden grow
