Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And tell me of the world that trampled your dreams
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And tell me of the words which broke your heart
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And tell me how the time stifled your screams
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And tell me how the looks acted like a sharp dart
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And tell me all and tell me more
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And show me your soul, all blood and gore
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And cry some and then some more
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
And bare it all, your feelings tender and sour
Fear not, I will reweave your dreams
And mend your broken heart
Fear not, I will kiss away your screams
And bless you with a fresh start
Fear not, I will sooth away your pain
And wipe all frustration
Fear not, I will bring the fresh rain
And smooth away all agitation
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
Come lay your head in my lap, little one
I just ask How….??
How can I tell You, what trampled my dreams
How to utter the words, that broke my heart
Talk about the time, that stifled my screams
I just ask How….??
How to tell about the simple small things
That led to something complete
How to show You, My soul, all blood and gore
I just ask How….??
How to bare it all, My feeling tender and sour
I fear that if I get started……
I will definitely cry…. And then cry some more
But talking about it, I can’t any more
Mending my broken heart, is not an easy chore
My screams are no longer audible
Drowned in the abyss of cruel silence
There is not really much that can be done
Not much that can soothe my pain
Nothing that would rid me of my frustration
I do however love the rain
raindrops trickling down my withered face
Secretly wiping away my tears
Keeping up appearances…. Even somewhat dignified
My dreams need not be rewoven
Because they never changed….
I wish I could tell You….
I just wonder How….??

As we were conversing privately…..I really believe the response is far better and sadder than the lesser query. BRAVO!

Now that is not fair…. And neither the intention.
Your writing inspired me….. And that should tell You everything You need to know about the unfairly referenced “lesser query”.
I really do appreciate Your Gracious Remarks.
I hope You keep writing and keep inspiring people.
You light up the black void in me……. Making the “black” spill out thoughts on paper… in words….
