Amongst The Tears I Have Learnt To Live
Life offered us so much we had so much to take.
We wanted it all.
We were afraid to let go.
You pulled me into you and we were one then you pushed me away and we weren’t even two.
Love wanted to fight my heart never gave up hope.
You promised forever but forever is too short.
I still think of you when I am wide awake and I dream of you Somewhere within my dreams where I will never let go of you.
Forever I will hold your hand.
You loved me and I loved you back but you took it all away.
Love was just a game to you but to me it was my life it was our life.
You threw it all away the day she walked into your life the day both of you walked over my heart crushing it like a flower cast by the roadside.
You hurt me so bad and so deep.
For this I will never forgive you.
Told you never to take me for granted but you didn’t listen
I shouted and screamed I whispered and in moments of silence I spoke to your heart but you didn’t hear.
You shut me out and now you hold open the door……too late….was just a matter of time….i am now awake..
Amongst the tears I learnt to live
Amongst the harsh words I learnt to breathe
Amongst the pain I learnt to love
And everything I have I learnt to give
Down and out at your feet I learnt to stand tall and walk once again
Lilac Wine
