Sorrow sleeps in my quiet breast
Resting there for a day when I
Made stronger from the needed rest
Or more immune to heartache’s sigh

Can then embrace that part that lies
Apart from all the rest of me
That in it’s stilted slumber cries
For breath of life, to be set free

For while my sorrow sleeps inside
I’m less than I have realized
The loss of soul and heart and pride
Induced emotion’s suicide.

So while I may not cry today
Form scars of you, will feel no pain
I wonder at the price I pay
And wish that I could smile again

Sorrow Sleeps

Sorrow sleeps in my quiet breast
Resting there for a day when I
Made stronger from the needed rest
Or more immune to heartache’s sigh

Can then embrace that part that lies
Apart from all the rest of me
That in it’s stilted slumber cries
For breath of life, to be set free

For while my sorrow sleeps inside
I’m less than I have realized
The loss of soul and heart and pride
Induced emotion’s suicide.

So while I may not cry today
Form scars of you, will feel no pain
I wonder at the price I pay
And wish that I could smile again

Wow*^_^*......
Very classically aesthetic style. You certainly posses the gift of expression through text.
Keep writing!
