Cry Eternity
Cry Eternity
Cry eternity
I was never good at composing a love poem
But I knew what love is, the what love can do to us
I searched for the honesty within your eyes,
Before you could even fake a smile,
How can I overlook the hurt of yesteryears,
You effortlessly, tries to make me forget,
I had cried so many nights, for the weaker (me)
(I got you my little ticker, I got you)
I held my heart in my hands, refusing to let it crumble
To destroy my progress now, would be suicidal ideation
Just for a piece of happiness, (a fumbling fool I will be)
No more now, I can’t go back to crying
In my sleep, no more, wet pillow for me
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen I can’t risk this kind of loving
My ancestors are calling me, I felt the ghostly presence
I felt their enforcement of wisdom and guidance
Amen, amen amen: show me, show me how,
I will not risk it, they want me to smile,
Yet their want me to be happy, at what cost
Not my heart, Amen, Amen! Especially if not serious love
I don’t want to lost my way right now,
droop downward, not my eyes anymore;
Yes, I will smile, yes, I will smile
I need you I want you, but at what cost?
for me i will hold you baby, within
until,
