Seconds
Another sleepless winter night...
I'm counting seconds, all alone.
Obscure, just like the candle's light,
Are dreams of what is still unknown.
And, waiting for the dawn coming,
I hear your voice through misty thoughts.
My heart is torn; it's bleeding - loving,
And left unsaid is just one word.
The pearls of lonely, genuine tears
Are sadness only you can see.
I need, like air to breathe, to hear
You still believe... believe in me.
You're close and far; it's sweet and bitter,
My strength is you - your sorrow's mine.
My poison turns to something sweeter
With every glance of dear eyes.
