Such Sad TearsA Poem by Althelia Marie CaineI catch my breath,
When he walks by,
No matter what I do,
I can't help but try not to cry.
I sit up late at night,
Thinking about what I gave up,
What could I have done,
To keep him from walking away from me?
/Please, look into my tear stained eyes, And tell me that you still love me/
Can I go through life without him?
Knowing that he is every minute on my mind?
Everytime I hear our song,
My eyes fill up with such sad tears,
Can he not see me weeping here?
Sobbing quietly in despair?
I don't know if I can go on like this,
I can't live without him by my side.
/Please look into my tear stained eyes And tell me that you will hold me tight/
The shingles on the roof of my aching heart,
Are falling away from that shattered emptiness,
I can't go on without him,
I don't even want to try,
I pray every minute of everyday,
That he will love me one more time,
My heart can't beat anymore,
Without his warmth to keep me here,
/Please look into my tear stained eyes, And tell me that you want me to be yours/ © 2012 Althelia Marie Caine |
