IT NEEDN'T END IN TEARS

          The night closes in around us now,
          The dreams we shared
          All seem to disappear.
          Tonight, tonight,
          Tonight we made such memories.
          Tonight, tonight,
          Tonight it needn't,
          It needn't end in tears.

          Times pass,
          Only the passion in our hearts
          Remains unchanged.
          Memories fade,
          But never the love that we share
          With those so dear.
          So remember,
          It needn't end in tears.
          Just remember,
          I'll always be near.
                    
          The morning comes round to wake us,
          The apparitions we lived,
          All seem to vanish.
          Last night, one night,
          The night so filled with passion.
          Last night, one night,
          The night it needn't,
          It needn't end in tears.          
Poem written November 1988. Title from instrumental song by Bill Bruford's Earthworks. Created by multiple listenings of the song.

~~ commented on as once decorated in the shadows of elegance, now adding this to my former heart's impression, it shall never end in tears, it shall not end in fears, it shall not end in shadows thoughts, for the light does shine upon the horizon, and breaks the dark. tears become diamonds that fall to the earth as angels sing in concert with a victorious re-birth. i love it still ~~
