Tears so sweet fall to the ground

by Ash   Sep 15, 2008


Tears so sweet fall to the ground,
In one quick motion without any sound.
My heart bled at every word you said,
But to the grave is where it all lead.

One time I wanted you to know,
That I'd follow you no matter where you go.
No matter what would happen I'd stand by your side,
No matter the distance I'll uncover the tide.

One time I thought that your love was true,
That you were different from all those people I knew.
That when you said "I love you" it can from your heart,
It wasn't just words that would pierce like a dart.

One time I thought I could live with you forever,
That my promises made would vanish never.
But it was only a foolish dream wherein I wanted to live,
Because I so deeply wanted to believe your every word.

And as I sit here and ponder "Where to next?",
I cannot even uncover the heartache and pain wherein I remain perplexed.
And as I wonder where shall my life now lead,
For every place I turn is another way wherein I'm placed in need.

One time I thought that maybe this was for real,
It wasn't just an illusion or one of the Devils deals,
It was as blissful as the winds that softly touch my face,
But in an instant your memories push of at the start of another race.

One time I really thought that you did care,
But the truth is that you were never really there.
To you my actions and even my presence did not even matter,
As though like dust particles I should scatter.

Where are those promises you once made,
You built these dreams only to let them fade.
And here I was so inclined to think,
That we would work things out and let fix.

But there is no hope nor faith in this world,
People will lie as though they only deserve,
What they need and what they want are not the same,
We're all toys in their mindless games.

Yes, it's true that yet another heart you broke,
But what can we do - it's wasteful to sit and mope.
Time will eventually teach you the same lessons I once learnt,
That when you say "I love you" - it's more than a heart you've earned.
