Resisting The Heartbreak
Resisting the Heartbreak
I lie here, in the darkness
After all this time, I still feel the hurt
These tortured thoughts come in the night
And I try to resist them
I still can see your smiling face
Back in the days when we were children
Before you were swept away
And I was left behind, crying
I wonder how you could break my fragile dreams
When you seems so loving, caring
When you were my dreams, my hopes, my love
And all I needed was you
One push was all that was needed
I was hanging by your thread of love
I thought it was strong, could last forever
But you cut me loose ...
I cried, I cried so much
And as these thoughts come to my mind
A single tear rolls down my cheek
And the dam breaks, I cry
I cry for the day we met
For the first time we ever kissed
I cry for the words that I treasure the most:
"Your father stole the stars and put them in your eyes."
You never told me why you left
Perhaps that’s the worst part of all
I thought of all the possibilities
And most of them were my fault
But you never came back to me
And eventually I stopped those dreams
Now all I have left is the memory of you
And the darkness that hears my pleas
Here I lie, upon my bed
Whispering my words of pain
Dreaming, as only you taught me to
And soon, I stop resisting.
