January 30

Sometimes we share a lonely night:

No on beside you
        to wipe away your tears –
No one to comfort you,
        to chase away your fears.
No arms to surround you –
        to hold you close and tight.
Not even my voice to tell you
        “Everything will be all right.”

Sometimes we share a lonely night:

The only thing that I can give
        is what I feel inside –
Wanting to be close to you –
        keep you satisfied.
Right all the wrongs you try to hide,
        the suffering you feel inside.
But I can’t wipe away your tears –
        I need you by MY side.

Sometimes we share a lonely night.
