Tears In My Eyes

Tears in my eyes will roll till the end of times
Pain in my heart shall persist for years and years
Something inside so strong shall always tell how wrong or right this is
Memories both good and bad shall surround me
Everything seems to communicate one simple but complex message
My wisdom or contrary fails me once again in life
Just as it did the moment I decided to give you all my love
I won’t play pool with my fellow gamblers
Neither shall I drink it over 
The bottle to my head never to put
Neither the trigger to pull
Watching movies may seem less interesting but I still watch will
Jealousy characteristic of my proud self for once
But deep inside I feel it
Not in contempt but definitely no regrets at all
Something is well convinced and strong enough to have me so
Some pain is worth feeling
Some tears are worth shedding
Some jealous is better felt than the opposite
Some words are better left unsaid
Some things are better left undone
Now go in peace my little angel
Warm another man’s bed if warm you must
Be a shoulder for another man to lean on
If and only if he finds need and consolation there like I did
Tell him the sweet words you told him
And when he has sweet ones to tell you
Don’t be too proud to listen
At one time or the other he may make sense
Sense that will act as joy in sorrow
Just as some words you told me when I was down do
Make your way now little darling
Let the hold world know what you are made of
I know it’s not easy for you either
Just a little bit easier than it is for me perhaps
I won’t tell you to be strong because strong I aint yet
 Before I wet the paper on which I write with tears
Let mi gather the frail courage I have left
To say what I thought most impossible
To say what is most against my heart but in line with my brain
As I officially let the tears roll their way down
GOOD BYE MY LOVE! GOOD BYE MY LOVE!
