I could bear
I could bear,
To live without dreams,
Floating through sleepless nights
On eyes that never shut;
I could journey lone,
Humming to tuneless tunes,
Without a heart’s longing
That craves the healing warmth of sunshine.
I could forfeit the choicest warmth,
In the wrath of beserk winter nights,
Not knowing what would be,
As heaven’s stars drift out of reach;
But I can’t face a now or moro,
Without your whispers- that much I know;
You are the pulse in all that I do,
I cannot live a day without you.
