Stare

I sit and stare 

at the gold plated ear 

of the statue beside the lake. 

I wait and I hope 

if given enough rope 

my heart will cease to ache.

I wonder at night 

and try as I might 

to bring back the dawn of the day. 

Our love was so strong 

it's we who belong 

together, once more, I do pray. 

For you and I know 

our love does still grow 

it's taken a different path. 

Now we can rest 

and be at our best 

once more we have learned to laugh. 

So come be with me 

and set your heart free 

and never again shall we part.
