Drowning From My Own Tears

Are you merely a dream 
that is just passing me by 

would falling in love with you 
weigh down my faith in you 

I reach out to you 
and I wonder why 

I find myself drowning 
from the raindrops 
of my own tears 

this love I have keeps 
me in fear 

how long will you haunt me 
in the darkess of my mind 

As I turn away in silence 
my heart continues to ache for you 

I want to kiss your lips 
and share your desires 

where romances rages 
and love conspires 

When I awake 
will I remember this 
dying dream of silence
