When love starts slipping away,
pretending becomes a chore.
And dreams are shrouded in gray,
for fantasies are no more.
Hope disappeared from your heart
the instant he slammed that door.
And as your world fell apart,
trickling tears began to pour.
Like an angel up above,
he spoke of forevermore.
And yet, abandoning love,
he left you pacing the floor.
Tears cannot be held at bay;
like the waves that wash ashore.
And although you wished he'd stay,
you're not as sure as before.
