Ring Of Tears

Fumbling through old boxes I came across our memories
In letters and pictures there was once happiness
Now there is barely a phone call
No emails nothing at all

I remember the lies you told me
How you would love me no matter what
Your love for children and loving them like your own
All lies so who cares if I'm alone
 
I'm not one to give up on anything
But I've tried to find a way and I just can't
No one to trust cause I gave love a second try
And I be damned if I'm left once again to cry

So what if everything I believed was wrong
All those fairy-tales and love stories
I didn't ask for that just someone to care
Someone who wanted simple love to share

Fuck that! and excuse me I don't really cuss
Yet I'm angry inside cause I fell victim
I let my guard down and I should have known
To have never given my heart to you cause now I'm alone

I made a promise today when I found your wedding ring
It lay beside mine where it should be
I cried many tears and filled them up inside
Promising to never love again and there my heart died

I got up and pushed all those memories back into the closet
Dusted off my hands and stuck them in my pockets
Took a deep breath and said goodbye forever
Finally after a year I've gotten over you, my biggest endeavor

    HEART-FELT!!!!

    Once again you pour heart out my friend. Such lonliness and sorrow, I have felt it also in my life and it is never easy. All will get better even if one never really forgets.
