Grace Burke Poems

I cry, but no one hears my sorrow
I weep, but no one sees my tears
I am alone on a sea of loneliness
Lost, forgotten, adrift on the water.
...

The rain gently falls as it cleanses my soul
The sound of its rhythm makes me feel whole
The soft quiet splat as it hits the glass pane
Soothes all my woes, this beautiful rain.

The soft quiet splat as it hits the glass pane
Soothes all my woes, this beautiful rain.

I came to see you, the sky was all grey
I longed to be with you or for you to here stay
But your journey was over, I must now go alone
You're now free of pain, you now have gone home.
...

Come sit with me at sunrise as we watch the day begin
As the glorious rays of sunshine herald in a new day
Know that I am here for you if you ever need a friend
Talk to me, confide in me, know that I care.

Little Timmy stretched as he jumped down off his bed
His hair was all a tangled mess, curls around his head
His socks were brown and rumpled but he only had one shoe
He couldn't find the other one, now what was he to do.
...

I stood upon the mountain top among the many trees
Can anyone looking down notice it is me
I am lost can no one see that I am all alone
Won't someone come and rescue me and show me the way home.
...

I paused for just a minute on the roadway of my life
The path that I had travelled was filled with loss and strife
The distant far horizon seemed many miles away
I wished that I could stop and rest for just another day.
...

She's always there beside me no matter where I go
In the darkest of the night and even in the snow
She loves me as no other, she's loyal to the core
As far as a companion, I couldn't ask for more.
