Believe In Me

My life is shattered, and is still not found 
A single shard.
But what could matter if I have a whole... 
Yet whole heart.
You haven't turned away,
And it has kindled hope in me.
Again so frail... But soon to be

My only light
On the way, so long -
Through endless nights
I'm tired of being strong. 
I wouldn't ask
Anything more
Just to believe in me...
Don't let me go...

I come to you, revealing my true face,
Without a mask,
Months passed, but time has failed to kill my faith,
And never ask
Why I'm still here. I have always been - will always be;
I'm strong for you
If you're strong for me.

So many things
I never told...
It's like a quiz,
Still left unsolved.
It's - yesterday. Let's leave it then.
I know: you'll forgive,
You'll understand. 

Each second, spent beside you, I am me,
I'm not afraid
In minute weakness, like they all, you'll see
A statue, frail.
I know every time my eyes get blind
You see the truth.
You know me inside
Better than I do. 

You're my only light
On the way, so long -
Through endless nights
I'm tired of being strong. 
I wouldn't ask
Anything more
Just to believe in me...
Don't let me go...

So many things
I never told...
It's like a quiz,
Still left unsolved.
It's - yesterday. Let's leave it then.
I know: you'll forgive,
You'll understand.
