TEARFUL EYES

I Finally Found an Excuse to Show the World That You’re Mine…

But You Left Me Shivering in the Cold Even Though I Had My Eyes on You the Entire Time…

The Glow of Moonlight Danced Delicately on Your Silky-Smooth Skin, Surrounding You with An Ethereal Glow.

It Is That Night That I Truly Understood What It Meant to Be A Child of The Moon.

We Talked About the Weather but Not the Storms Inside. We Talked About Everything Except What Was on Our Minds…

You Played with My Heart.

You Were A Chapter in My Life, But Not the Whole Story

I Wish I Had the Grace to Walk Away When You Weren’t Asking Me to Stay Anyway

Someday You’re Going to Remember Me and How Much I Loved You…Then You’re Going to Hate Yourself for Letting Me Go,

I May Have Lost Someone Who Didn’t Love Me, But You Lost Someone Who Truly Loved You.

It Was Then That It Dawned on Me That Sometimes You Have to Give Up on People. Not Because You Don’t Care, But Because They Don’t.

I Learnt That Some Things Break Your Heart, But Fix Your Vision,

So, I Stopped Looking for Happiness in The Same Place I Lost It

He had Sworn to Never Love Her, But His Gaze Lingered on Her Like A Desert Traveler Yearning for Water.

I Often Find Myself Drawn to The Cliff Edge, Tempted by The Inevitable Fall into Chilling Dark Waters, Not Seeking Death but Desperate to Feel Alive Once Again

Just A Smiling Face Blown Away in The Wind So Quickly When I’m Alone. Unable to Keep the Flame of Your Words at Bay. Burning Away and Leaving Me Blackened and Broken

Nothing Was Ever Enough…

Your Love Did Not Lie in The Length of Days, But in The Tale of Years,

You Were My Sunshine in The Cloudiest of Days,

And That’s Why I was Grateful for Your Endless Love for The Time We Were Together

But Your Will to Continue Gave Out When Your Demands Became Unattainable for Me.

I Could Feel My Insides Sink, My Knees Too,

So, I Sat on The Ground Against the Wall,

Letting It Support Me

Just Like That, I’m Water,

Just Like That, I’m The Boat,

Just Like That, I’m Both Things in The Whole World Rocking.

Please Forgive Me as I Look You in The Eye One Final Time.

Life Tried to Crush Me but Only Succeeded in Creating A Diamond.

It’s True When They Say the Line Between Love and Hate Is So Thin.

In the End, We Were All Just Humans Drunk on The Idea That Love, Only Love Could Heal My Brokenness.

Remember;

Pain Makes You Stronger, Tears Make You Braver, And Heartbreaks Make You Wiser, So Thank the Past for A Better Future.
