A heavy burden of sort
mercilessly tugs at my heart
It pines for love and care
that eluded it from the start

Like a sleeping monster
underneath serene still waters
No reason will it accept
for silence holds all answers

Painstakingly it has tried
to smother its secret fears
Until no trace at all
could be seen of my own tears

So though, through life
I may have to cheat fate
I must always remember
tomorrow can, and must wait
