Shouldered Tears

The Shouldered tears
She is the world, the sky and the moon
The stars do not shine as she
When she's not with me
I feel like I've a missing limb
Cut down
Laid out bare
And I feel alone.
When the shouldered tears
Have all dried up
And the twisted years
Have straightened themselves out
She will always be there
Standing there
As a cooling breeze.
To my open heart, she flows free
Dancing like a leaf in the autumn breeze
She takes my spirit, stands up and soars
Up through the universe, past the stars
Taking me to the next world
One full of love and joy
One that no-one can destroy.
