Why did you...

Why did you break my heart?

Why did you kill my dreams?

Why did you make my tears flow?

Why did you quit my heart?

Why did you gift me pains?

How can I bear such blows?

All my hours I kept aside,

For you to fill with care,

All my days I waited alone,

My ache you did not spare.

Today I live alone,

In my vacant land,

My breath shattered like glass,

Today I do not cry,

I wait for life to pass.

In My Dreams

In my dreams, you are with me,

You hold me in your arms,

In my dreams, you smile at me,

On my pains you spread balm;

In my dreams, I sing with you,

Our songs of togetherness,

In my dreams, my world is bright,

I delight in your caress;

In my dreams, no fears lurk,

My shadows are bygones,

In my dreams, life shines fair,

I never feel forlorn;

In my dreams, I dream of you,

I dream of blessedness,

In my dreams, all heaven's mine,

For I feel your tenderness;

In my dreams, Oh! in my dreams.
