Memories

Falling darkness and sad sighs
All she knew had turned to lies
Betrayals wrapped up in her tattered soul
Tearing apart her plans and goals

She's so lovely when she cries.
Tear stained cheeks under clouded eyes
Love hurts sometimes but this is agony
Yet she continues to hope of being happy

Bent and broken as her heart.
Bleeding and hurting from the shards
Stabbing at wounds
Ripping scabs apart

She felt his hand wipe her tears away
Never knew her pain would fade
And even though this was just a dream
She knew how great her life might be.
