Dare

Dare I reveal my sorrow
 now alone, emptied of tomorrows?

Who dare believe in love forever
 when losing it brings such displeasure.

This silent song I sing
 clutches tight the heartache it brings
loss is stretched out anxious pain
 dimming all possibility of love again.

Send me and angel to guard my heart
 a messenger of hope before I fall apart
let me dream, recover the moment leapt
 and dare to love again with promises kept.
