Thema: Lay Down, O Heart

Lay down, O heart, lay down and sleep
Down in the earth where you belong
Let wind wash o’er this cold so deep
And let my dreams be warm and long

Your words ring true and soothe my pain
But actions tell a different tale
No sun can shield me from the rain
While I’m left stranded in the vale

My time with you is heaven’s kiss
My time alone the kiss of death
For other loves eclipse the bliss
That slips away with dying breath

A heart with force can ne’er be won
Devotion never claimed by right
And happiness, like sinking sun
Embarks upon the lonely night

A man I am with simple mind
Betrayed by those he loves the best
And peace this heart will never find
Until I lay it down to rest

Lay down, O heart, lay down and sleep
Down in the earth where you belong
Let wind wash o’er this cold so deep
And let my dreams be warm and long

Thema: Re: Lay Down, O Heart

Lay down O heart
be still and calm
rest in earth arms so warm, but:

be ready for wonders, surprises and charm!

For unto us on Christmas day
a child is born for you today,

a Savior reaches out for hearts
that lay there in sadness

awaiting; lonely..

O, He is True
and waits for you;
he will never let you down

see how His Love's shown...

Hope your Heart'll be blessed on
this Christmas Day
and the year to come full off wonders may..

Nice fantasy. I don't believe it.
