Eileen Manassian Poet Quatrain

Sing To Me

When I am weary, tired and worn
When the day on wings has flown
When dusk comes with hushed repose
When I lie, a wilted rose
Sing to me

When my heart is bruised and sore
When my voice cannot implore
When my tears streak down my face
When my fears need saving grace
Sing to me

Sing to me on lover's bed
Sing to me, my worries shed
Sing to me, sweet lullaby
Sing to me, don't ask me why
Sing to me

With lips close to shoulder bare
With hand deep in raven hair
With voice trembling in my soul
With melody to make me whole
Sing to ME

Sing to me for in your tone 
Sleepiness to stars has flow
In tune whispered in my ear
Angel song of love I hear

Yes, Sing
Sing to me

Casarah Nance September 9, 2014 at 6:59 AM A lover's voice can be healing, with words sung that touch the soul, beautiful lady, you deserve to hear all the sweetest words :)

Justin Bordner July 26, 2014 at 1:03 PM Such classic beauty and need of lover's therapy. Oh to have someone who can heal with a hue voice and with a song of heaven's private touch. The rhyming is impecably entwined with the meaning in this romantic poem Eileen, very deft you are at bringing letter and love together. " When dusk comes with hushed repose...When lips close to shoulder bare" dreamy excellence, and a FAV. J.A.B.

Richard Lamoureux July 25, 2014 at 8:28 AM I love to sing but unfortunately my singing prowes is limited. I try to make up for it in other ways *lol* I hope your life is filled with the most beautiful of music. This one was sad but hopeful, you expressed the angst in a beautiful way.
