My Tired Eyes

I lay here in wonderment
Even asking why,
After all the time,
That has passed,
You're still on my mind.
I know that I had loved you
A burning so deep
But for what right do i have
These memories to keep?
I know that in time
This heart that I hold
Will relese the longing
And let the embers grow cold
And with each passing moment
This feeling shall die
But in the wee midnight hours,
I lay down and cry
I dream of the memories
And the words you had spoke
My heart reaches out
For the one thing it knows
But when you fall short
My soul again dies
And the tears blessed by loneliness
Curse my tired eyes
