Why do You Cry my Dove?
Little dove why do you cry?
What bred the tears trickling down your cheeks?
What caused your anguish and plea to die?
You’ve been through so much these past weeks.
Little baby dove, why are you sad?
Stare into my melancholy heart.
Can I give you what you once had?
I still carry the shards of your soul torn apart.
Do I make you feel better my dove?
I clasp your intricate wings,
With a kiss I send you off carrying my love.
In the sunshine, moonlight and weather that sings.
O’ my pulchritudinous dove, why can’t you see?
That you’ll one day again mean peace.
You can fly away and be free with me,
We will finally be released.
