I Promise

I haven't slept at all in days
Been devising different ways
To save day after day, hours of speculation
About the trials of my heart
And its tribulation.

Ideas prance about in my mind
When I touch them they hide behind
The mist of feelings I have a stack of.
Tired, I give up trying
And back off.

I hear her laughter and taste my tears.
I'll wait here till his heart hears
The wails of mine and all my sighing.
When this happens, I promise
I'll stop crying.
