Cheers and Tears




Tell me why

you stood at the door,

when you've been here

many times before?


Why you held me tight once again,

and drew your tongue

before I could bite?


Tell me why


Why were you full of cheer?

because though I slept well last night

my eyes are heavy

full of tears.


Why don't you come running

and show unannounced?

You know, I've always wanted that,

been always ready to pounce.


and I'll tell you why


I'm ready for another round,

no matter when, my dear

even in my cries

where I'll drown in my tears.
