you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
when you think that today was meant to be so solemn
why can't you cry for the one you loved so dearly?
What happened to that happy ending?
as all that's left now
is sweet surrender
is a lost remembrance
I stand here as they speak of your life
pathetic really, no one knew you like I
but that never mattered to anyone
they just tossed me aside for nothing
but darling please just come back to me
I don't want to miss you tonight
I want here by my side again
but this snowy goodbye perishes all thought
she never loved you like I did
but you never cared enough to see that
you were my everything for so long
and I would give up forever to touch you
do you know what you left behind in me?
someone shallow as a puddle
filled with vacant lies of what was
but I can't fight the tears that ain't coming
just hide away once and for all
from this world of hatred and despair
as the blood within you keeps you alive
I just wish you were here one more day...
little angel you're all cried out
and now you have nothing to do but walk away
as a snowflake kisses your cheek
you learn that all you can do
is say goodbye...

"I stand here as they speak of your life

isn't that the goddamn truth, and then when you can't breathe a word of it...
I want to thank you for entering my contest. I am closing it because I didn't find anything I wanted to award a trophy to-- but that could be because this topic is obviously very close to my heart, and I'm realizing I probably shouldn't have opened a contest for this in the first place. I wonder if anything would have been good enough.
I am awarding 30 points to all participants for their effort and sentiment. Thank you for reaching out with your words.
