nothing,at all...

i asked her why she wasn't crying tonight,
she said, nothing,
i asked her why she had closed her eyes,
she said, nothing;

i asked her, to smile,
one last time,
before i fall,
she said nothing, nothing at all;

i asked her why the night sky wasn't bright,
she said, nothing,
i told her that i would never lie,
she said, nothing;

i asked her why,
she was being a child,
nothing i did,
that i could recall,
she said nothing, nothing at all;

the stars don't shine,
the words don't rhyme,
with broken pride,
he tried one last time,
as he held her hand, she felt like ice,
a soul less mould, there she lie,
in all his dismay,
tears fill his eyes and again he talks,
he waits for a reply,
but still, she says nothing, nothing at all...
