I sit besides the river and weep
It never felt improper to dream.
But tonight, my dream makes me cry.
I wait for the morning.
The distant stars and the lovely moon echo the grief of my heavy heart.
The dark night seems familiar. Come thief, steal my heart; it’s ripe.
I am too bored to breathe. My heart is sinking, and so am I.
My will flees me, and the night is darkening.
I wait for the morning.
Come again.
