Silence of a Broken Heart
With great anguish the day began,
Death severed love's embrace
A life of promises and plans
With one last breath the time we had together erased
With trembling hands he held himself tight
Tears rolling down his cheeks
The stinging tears hit the ground as they rolled off his face
His only love turned on him
Leaving him in the dust
Leaving him behind as she flew up into the sky
Not willing to say a goodbye
The harsh pain was much more than he could bear
Wedding bells were soon to ring
Her white satin gown draped across the bed
Collecting dust by now,
But now he wears a suit of black
To say his goodbye's
Each night his pillows' wet with tears
The devastating dreams are slow to part
Now in his eyes,
The heartache is still the silence of a broken heart.
