TEARS

by purplemadness   Jul 11, 2007


Salty jewels fall from my eyes,
Tears that came from a long lost memory.
The dog howls at a blue moon tonight,
Like me, it has no warm place to hide.
Abandoned I sit in a corner,
Just trying to get a little warmer.

And while the night spreads its sheet over the day,
The memory of you is not fading away.
The candlelight plays with the shadows of the night,
While I am struggling with this inner fight.
I keep thinking of all the words you said,
Your voice soft as a feathers bed.

Salty acid tears fell on the floor,
Since you've walked out that door.
My glass in front me is like my heart,
Empty now we are apart.
The pain I feel is outrageous and unknown,
It is so immense, unbearable now I am all alone.

Crystal clear tears depart from my eyes,
And I shiver; I am as cold as ice.
It is too late, but now I realise,
That you have scarred me for life.
And as the moon is beaten by the sun,
I know my life is done.

And knowing this fills my eyes with liquid pearls,
I am ready to leave this cruel and wicked world.
And if you wonder to where I might have gone,
That answer can't be answered by anyone.
But if it's really me you want to see,
A little left of the moon, a small star is shining bright.
That star will be me.
