Poem
With Salty Tears We sit alone in a bed we once made love in We talk about the past and what went wrong You lie there crying wanting me to hold you How did we ever get this far? This is not us I listen to your words between your sobs I feel you shake as you can't help yourself You're telling me everything that's causing these tears to fall Where were all these tears hiding? All this pain? You were an angel who flew into my heart and kept it safe You were an angel who wrapped me into her arms of love Now you're an angel so lost you can't see what you had As you cry I remember why we're losing everything This bed was shared with another man The sheets dirtied by the juices of lust The lies of a heartless wife whose love there never really was For once it is not I that am crying but you For once I feel I can go on and be me So as I watch you cry I know that the pain you feel is real I know that you are hurting like you hurt me Fly to the man you chose The man who makes you happy The man you hid from me Go to him and be faithful. Be his angel. Be everything I deserved and never got Be who you want to be That is his angel with love so pure for one human being Good-bye my sweet angel. Good-bye for now and forever Don't cry for if you're truly happy you would be smiling It was you and I against the world and you promised me forever more You let me go and the struggle has ended. It's time for me to let you go. Here's the hug you asked for Here's me kissing away your tears With salty tears upon my lips I say I love you This is your last kiss. This is our last goodbye. This is our final fight for love
