If Only Tears Were Enough

by Lutearina

If only tears were enough

You, the evanescent angel

Would never again fade away into the mists of sorrow.

If only tears were enough

You, that cocky SOLDIER

Wouldn't have left me shattered and confused.

If only tears were enough

You, the denizen of love

Would never leave me with a smile and a wisp of something from long ago.

If only tears were enough

You, that playful troublemaker

Would never leave me with a wave and the eerie echo of gunshots.

If only tears were enough

You, that sweet flower girl

Would frolic in the crystalline fields with me once more.

If only tears were enough

You, that irritating, loveable boy

Would return to me and help me piece together my true feelings.

If only tears were enough

We four would begin anew.
