I Will Cry You A River...

I will cry you a river full of sorrow, pains i heed lonely as the day is long What happened to those gentle caresses, left on an arm, a knee, a shoulder gone cold and nowhere here away from this place full of disgrace dont look into my face now only pain, sweat and tears replace the face that knew no fears dying promises drift off into the night now a shaky hand, grasps for what isnt there a meaningless attempt to save what is slipping the silence unbroken no words here spoken forlorn and alone sitting by her phone a call too distant a wish made in an instant... only to have him here by her side, yet at home, he still resides... As it so many times previously And when I knew I would see your face again One way or another it didn’t help to ease the pain Something brought me back; a chill ran down my spine It hurt to struggle in order to hold back the tears rushing down a sullen face To cry a river dry it up again hold it back is nothing in life is worth the effort worth the pain? all the tears I shed Over everything I dread Starts to not mean a thing And anxiety it only brings I thrust deep inside Demanding to hide What I once thought What I once sought I will cry a river, not over you but over what I thought I knew, what I based my existence on that is now gone Written March 13th, 2002 © on Mar 13 2002 01:11 PM PST    0 • 1
