The Moonlight Saw Me Cry Tonight

by Twisted Heart   Sep 20, 2006


The moonlight saw me cry tonight
As I stood in its embrace
I let the tears flow endlessly
There upon my face.

My heart was shaking constantly
As my soul was ripped away
It met the darkened shadows
Under the star's display.

I gave way to the hungry hold
That was inside of me
And let the teardrops fall upon
My cheek so gracefully.

Just a few sad memories
That live within my soul
Came to crush my very heart
And leave it in the cold.

But teardrops are a funny thing
For with their cleansing breath
They take away the hurt inside
And give your soul a rest.

    I loved that stanza. So true how tears heal our pain and it makes us feel good.
