Unraveled Seams

Rejections feared
That have come true
My heart’s been seared
Romantic coup
All hopes and dreams
They fade away
Unraveled seams
Begin to fray

Eyes wide open
Still not seeing
Always hopin’
And believing
I will collapse
I fall apart
There’s left no chance
For lonely hearts

When waves crash down
A sight to see
You weren’t around
They crashed on me
The setting sun
It waves goodbye
You were the one
That made me cry
