i cry..

i cry because i know
you will leave

i cry because i cannot
stop you- because i am
not enough to make you stay-

i cry because i am thankful this
love has lasted so long

i cry because in your arms
i am comfortable and content

i cry because i know this
cannot last- and because i have known lonliness before

i cry because i fear myself-
because i will have no one to blame

i cry because life is so good
for only but a moment-and because i
have found happiness in you

i cry because i'm scared of what
is to come

i cry for you, for her, for life, for myself,
i cry for today
