Come with me
I show you thee
the shadow beneath
the candle dance
to me and thee
it hope to abod
and lighten up
the darkened night
but when I asked
the saddened beauty
how it feels to
stand still and stare upright
she speak to me
with tearful smile
shattered hopes
and yearn full sighs
long was the last night, asif
still longer will be tomorrow night
stricken, sad and smitten with grief
I long for pure and love filled sight
breeze is blowing cold
still colder is my inner side
I give light and heat to world, but
beneath my feet is cold and shivering night
for me no pleasure can exceed
my heart is like an open book
yet you can see through my burning heart
but still give me a fearful look
alas! the light you see, dear
is not a burning flame
it is my heart that glows
cause of my lonesome fame
loneliness is curse
and I'm cursed by fate
you will come to know for sure, when
all prayers and pleads will be turned down
from heaven's gate
