Rain drops of heartache
Are falling
And memories not so fond
Keep calling
Out to me
Because of you
You keep…
Running
Every day
Every night
Through my head
In my bed
I can hear myself
Screaming
And the love
That fills my heart
Is leaving
I feel
Left for dead
And embarrassed
Inside me head
For the thoughts that I can’t
Just can’t ignore
Do you squirm
When my sleeping eyes
Land on you
And do you feel
My rakish stare
That sees through you
Tender memories no longer fond
Are breathing
Ripping holes inside my head
Leave me seething
I just can’t shake
The thought of you
From my heart
I’d rip it out
But that thought
Tears me apart
I toss and turn
Reaching out
For something lost
But I can’t find
What I once had
This is the cost
Of loving someone so much
So hard
Of cherishing something so precious
You disregard
Because my screams
Of envious rage
Can’t penetrate mountains
And the tears
Creates oceans
Creates sorrows’ fountains
If you would return
In these arms
I’d rebuild dead cities
Yet I’m stuck cowering
Inside these dreams
Inside my own self pity
