Tears

Sweet, salty and precious
The tears that you cry
My heart is full of compassion
I’d like these small drops to dry.

But what’s the way to comfort you?
What lies should I invent?
To make the eyes so shining and tears few
I am too lost and don’t pretend.

I will consult with rain
The pearls of liquid are the same.
He’ll show how to relieve the pain
But autumn’s master is not so tame

I will ask the moon at night
To take the sorrow of your soul for good
The loyal helper is the silver light
Oh, black love angels, if I only could!

I’ll kneel before the tempting fire
To beg some warmth for you and me,
I will recover your desire
To live, I pray accept my plea.

I was in the exhausting searches
The panacea had to be mine
And didn’t notice that solely tortures
They brought – you almost died.

The reality perception struck me straight
I was in rave and calm and sorrow
You did not need my endless fight
With rain or moon or fire – it is just hollow.

You need my love and presence near
And only I can make your tears leave
With single kiss all troubles disappear
The hearts together beat and we will live!
