Leave Me Be

softly you entered my life,
stealing away all pleasure an pain
rejecting you, I longed to be free
but, your voice filled my dreams
sweet were you, when you came to me
happiness fled at a touch,
sorrow as a whisper of comfort,
passion for life as non I have ever seen
Yet, no life within you could I find
as if you were only a dream
Yearning to feel your cold embrace,
knowing you were always there,
but, always were denied to me
as if, you did not care
will you not come set me free
eternity it seems I have waited
Silently praying for you
yet, neither here nor there
are your promises found
do you no longer care...
bitter touch of a hand,
upon
my anguished face
seems so long ago
no sooner have I begun to live
but, once again you return
offering what you never give
Laughter, Comfort, I needed before
Saddness, Sorrow, I do adore

Yet, here you stay
leave me be, I want no more
of your sweet misery
