Rip

Cry into my eyes again I want this love to begin Doesn’t matter who will win Wonder where you been… Don’t care if I am in pain As long as you heal again I know I did you wrong Life is a life of Ping-pong Okay, yeah, I did you wrong I weep myself to sleep Okay, so? I wrote this song I weep myself to sleep Can’t deny I cried Something in me died I weep myself to sleep In midnights' slumber so deep… Fly into my arm tonight I need you to fight my fight Doesn’t matter if I’m not free As long as you are, you are to me Don’t hold me accountable of my downfalls Don’t heartlessly hang up our countless calls Hear me out…just listen… No doubt, I’ve done it again Okay, yeah, I did you wrong I weep myself to sleep Okay, so? I wrote this song I weep myself to sleep Can’t deny I cried Something in me died I weep myself to sleep In midnights' slumber so deep… I weep, weep, weep into the deep I sleep, sleep, sleep before I make a leap Towards your lane… Your terrible pain… Is mine to keep, mend and hold you safe inside… Be brave and I will no longer have a need to hide I don’t want to weep myself to sleep I don’t want to act like a strange creep Please don’t throw me into the ditch of left-behind Please don’t start crying with me if you don’t mind I know you hurt like I do…okay… I weep myself to sleep But, you can’t take it all away I don’t make a peep Take it all away…take it, I pray… Guilt is beyond knee-deep Take with you guilt and dismay Okay, yeah, I did you wrong I weep myself to sleep Okay, so? I wrote this song I weep myself to sleep Can’t deny I cried Something in me died I weep myself to sleep In midnights' slumber so deep… So, I pray that you have sweet sleep… In sunlight's arrival, I no longer weep… You should do the same Life is not always a videogame So, I expect you not to feel shame Our sorrows left us with no one to blame Leave it in that yesterday's heap of everlasting ashes Accept tomorrow’s waves as they carress you with precious crashes I know it relaxes and satisfies the ownership Of our harmonious happiness…now, now, RIP. In midnights' slumber so deep, so deep in pain's pit Rest in peace and don't venture on doubt's trip Go ahead and RIP and lift up your once-soullous spirit Get a grip and RIP...get a grip and take renewal's dip Oh, come on now... Okay, yeah, I did you wrong Rest in sweet sleep all along Forget regret and show me your love aglow Cry into my eyes until they...simply...overflow Enlighten me somehow... And you know?

Thank you for visiting my poems, JW. I liked your lyric RIP. Very easy and nicely flowing lyric. The lines "Okay, yeah, I did you wrong, I weep myself to sleep" are beautiful.
