Crossroads

She sits and stares off into space Thinking of another time and place Her eyes are sad Her look is grim As she tries to come to grips with the emotions within Why didn't he love her as she loved him What could she do to win his heart And together make a brand new start Her mind travels through their memories Like a slide screen show By the end of the trip she already knows It's over, they will never be If love is not there, you must set them free Tears fall fast now to her chin She wipes them away And with great resolve rises to her feet Her lips send a silent kiss Her heart still mourns with her secret wish She walks off into the dreary dawn When the pain has gone She pledges to continue on To smile and love again some day To find that special someone who feels the same way
