Here to You - by Erik Smith

return to Erik's poetry index

 

Where have you been
While my heart burns in pain
Why haven't you stayed by me
But covered your domain in vein

Why have you told me lies
Covered in the sugar cries
With your words my hopes fly high
And when they go sour
Everything within me dies

Nobody's left around for you to tear
We've all got better things to do
Alone in your creation gone wrong
We see all of our own things through

Don't show your face here
And stay where you really care
We don't need your unloving stare
That tends to leave us raw and bare

Take your heaven and give it to me
Make my enemies dash and flee
Send us happiness joy and glee
My god being music I give to thee

Forever to you my love will stay
To you I pledge each and every day

My heart beats hard at the thought of you
Whatever you ask is whatever I'll do
