River Of Tears

by Ann Stareyes   Mar 17, 2005


I'll never know these feelings of joy,
That you once gave me,
I'll never know the true meaning of happiness,
That you have now taken from me.

I'll never again feel that need of desire,
That you brought into my life,
I'll never feel loved again,
You have truly destroyed my life.

I'll never be able to show my passion,
To the one I truly adored,
You've taken everything,
And just so much more.

You were that one star in the sky,
That I always looked up to,
Helped me realize life was worth living,
And gave me a ray of sunshine too.

You've taken all my dignity,
Never to be regained,
You've threw away what we had,
And it's driving me insane.

How could you toss it all away,
Like a old newspaper of yesterday?
How can you even sleep at night,
Knowing you hurt me this way?

You've given me a hurt that is devastating,
And so many tears I've cried,
My heart is completely demolished,
You've just torn me up inside.

There will never be another you,
That can enter this heart of mine,
I just pray it will mend.

Wake up and smell the roses,
And see what you've let go,
A woman of beauty throughout,
With a heart full of gold.

I know your heart may be hurting a little,
But it will never hurt like mine,
You'll never cry all the tears,
because you'll lock yours inside.

You've hurt me,
And there's no need to lie,
I hope someday you regret it,
But for now, It's hard to say good-bye.
