when i see you,
sitting on a chair on a pleasant evening,
crying,ever so silent tears rolling down...
i want to tell you something to vanish that frown.
when i see you,
alone on a terrace in the rain,
crying hard to forget your pain,
i want to assure you but don't know what to say...
when you sit staring out into the night sky,
thinking what might have been-all so sad,
of the past days when u think and sigh-
i want to tell you its not so bad!
and there are so many other things that i want to tell you,
how its the darkest before the dawn of the glorious sun,
and that you'll get every joy before you die,
but i am afraid it'll be a great big lie.
i see you afraid to take the next step,
hesitating on the brink of a fall,
you sit back reminiscence when and where,
you dance in the pouring rain without care...
baby,i am sorry but i have to tell you,
the days when we sang together are now gone,
and though everything good that i wanna do or say,
i can only tell you to go on...
memories of the dash through a rainswept road,
the way you rain carefree in those wintry mornings,
they aren't going to come back,howsoever hard you may try-
i am sorry to tell you,but its fruitless to cry.
i can promise you no brighter future hope,
and i can barely look into that hollow eye,
but the rain today is so different from those memories,
so go inside and wash your tears dry...

This is lovely.
It sounds like something you have experienced, and the feeling between the two people is palpable.
"and there are so many other things that i want to tell you,
how its the darkest before the dawn of the glorious sun"
those are my favourite lines!
thank you...
i haven't really experienced the things i describe...the only thing i genuinely know is the pain of separation...of getting torn apart by the wiles of this world.
this is awesome...honestly...never have i appreciated some1 else'z poetry to this level..seriously amazin.
