In My Tears

In my tears

You will see the hurt,

Of all these years spent waiting, wanting, trying to have something better.

 

In my tears

You will see the pain,

Of all who have come and gone, leaving me, without hope... broken.

 

In my tears

You will see the hate,

For every damning soul, pessimistic heart, and ridiculing b*****d who's ever crossed my path.

 

But in my tears...

You will not

No

You will NOT see the love.

You will NOT see the forgiveness.

You will never see a smile...

 

Because I hold all of that in a special place.

A place you will never find.

I hold the happiness in my heart.

 

...

 

Because that is where you can't touch it...

Because that my friend... is where it stays.

 

Because in my tears,

I show the world what they want to see...

But in my heart...

I show only what i want you to see.

You probably don't remember me.
and maybe you'll never see this.
But it's Eric.
It's been over ten years since we last spoke.
