~Tender be the falling~.

Cast not the light away 
When your heart is dark
 & weak

Tender be the falling words 
For which your mind
shall speak

Come forth my darling 
Close your eyes

feel the gentle breeze 

Let me hold you in silence 
Although your heart displeased 

In hopes my love to console 
Conceal this deepening hole

Bound now body to soul
Beyond the darkened night 

Holdfast in sorrow my love 
Await the morning light 

I promise not to let you go
~my darling 
Until you feel alright 

Don't speak such madness love 
Just hold my body tight 

Cast not away in anguish love 
Fight with all your might 

Come forth my darling 
Close your eyes

Upon morrow my love
No sorrow 
A brand new sun to rise

within a brand new light my love 
I beg you open your eyes .
