Tulips

..and the night falls once again,
I light the candles...
And as i look out the windows,
The silence and the darkness fill my heart with sorrow.
My body feels, so tired now,
And i hear her voice fading away.. .
The breeze and the cold rain...
And then i could hear a child cry from miles away.
I watch the moon and write about the past,
The tulips in the garden are so sad,
Like a lonely bird i watch the night going by,
And i think of when your light would shine so bright,
About the child that once was mine,
And about the flowers that now have died.
