Unheard Music

Each day I sit on this roof top,
Praying that this rain will never stop.

It caresses my skin,
And I feel you within.

Your beautiful green eyes cry,
Deep, deep down inside I die.

The rain pounds out a unique sound,
And my tearing heart does that familiar pound.

Are you with me, my love?
Here with me instead of heaven above?

Show yourself to me sweetheart...
I never ever want us to be apart.

My throat itches so badly,
Now I'd sing for you gladly.

I'd sing any and every song,
Tell you how I was so very, very wrong.

I see you now before you died,
You told me how much it hurt when I cried.

Your short black hair spread out on the pillow,
Once straight back bendable as a willow.

I wanted so badly to say I love you,
but I was so scared, these feelings so new.

I promised you before you slept,
And it is a promise still I have kept.

I won't speak, won't laugh,
It tears my fragile heart in half.

But I will remain with no voice,
Don't argue you'll hear this, it's my choice.

You'll be the last to hear this song,
And I'll then stay silent all life long.

This burden if wearing on my physique,
Now you listen to my unheard music.
