Silent watching from afar, her tears fall down like rain
No one sees her hide her eyes, no one sees her pain
She sits and laughs and smiles away, hoping no one knows
What dark secrets she hides inside, or how far she will go
To see the one that she holds dear, the one who is in her heart
She pretends there is nothing there, inside she is torn apart
She knows that it may never come to pass, it may never come to be
And so she keeps it locked up tight, and hopes for some reprieve
He holds her heart, He holds dreams she knows she can’t break free
She hopes deep down she never will, one day He will finally see
Until then the tears will fall inside her as she plays the part
And all the while she stop and smile, and slowly fall apart
There's a time that comes every now and then,
When one must sit and shut tight both eyes,
To hold back a deluge of welling tears,
To maintain that happy workplace disguise.
More often than not we curse such changes
That strike the core of our comfort zone,
And usurp our minds of its security
To leave us speechless and very much alone.
But despite these feelings that one may bare
It is a fact that life is exactly that:
A destined journey of constant changes
That can switch course at the drop of a hat.
No matter how hard it may slap one's face
With a force never before known to be,
This reality of your sure departure still seems
Like a daydream fantasy.
In the lest of composure one can
Manage a pair of arms separate with much caution,
But in the manner of a bird from a nest,
Or an eager child into a winter snow,
There are times when utmost love can be shown
In the simple action of letting go.
I'll wait forever
If that's what it takes
Even if it means
My heart breaks
There's no need to worry
I'll be just fine
Waiting for the day
I can call you mine
Some may ask
Why I made this choice
Well, I'll tell you people
Listen to my voice
When you find someone
Who finally understands
You'll hold on to
Whatever you can
Not wanting to lose
Yet knowing you may not win
I guess it's true
Your love is the sweetest sin
Wishing and waiting
Just sitting around
I'll keep listening
For that sweet little sound
To hear your voice
That is my desire
Seeing your smile
Is warmer than any fire
Can you believe it?
I'm wasting my time
Turning this all into
Another stupid rhyme
Love is like a tootsie pop
It may taste good at first
But really it just tricks you
It sucks, and why?
The world may never know...
