Yesterday's Tears
When smoldering embers
ignite, they tend to burn.
For pain's a part of love,
that hearts aren't keen to learn.
Life is fraught with sad tears
that manipulate fate.
And depression deepens,
as love morphs into hate.
Indulging fantasies,
you let fate guide you through.
Yet, despite dreams and hopes,
love keeps eluding you.
Seduction and desire
fuel flames of passion.
And you ignore the truth
when sin is in fashion.
Shuck the emotional
weight of yesterday's tears.
And take stock of your life,
don't give in to your fears.
