Warm Tears Part II

High to low
How'd that happen so quickly?
I was excited about the possibilities
All the things that layed in front of me
But now the possibilities are impossible
and I can feel the warm tears starting to fall.

Warm Tears

Warm tears flow from my eyes
from the same eyes that saw his smile
and turned it into my happiness

It's hard to believe that these tears
are over the same boy that I once loved
the one who brought so much joy to my life

The long talks in the middle of the night
have been replaced by heated arguments
laughter has turned to tears

I wanted this to work so badly
but I guess it wasn't meant to be
I am forced to move on without him

But it's hard to move on
when the love is still there
but the pain is too much

So I must move on and be strong
as warm tears fall from my eyes
to my pillow

Does it matter?

It's so hard to do what's right
when the world tells you it doesn't matter,
but it's then that it matters most.

Love Not Forgotten

When I'm with him he lifts me up
He takes me places I've never been before
He makes me feel like I'm the only one he'll ever love
It's as if his world revolves around me
It seems almost too good to be true
Then I feel his face brush against my neck
I feel the warmth of his hand on my own
The passion is in our hearts and the love we feel
Is a love I will never forget

Drowning in Your Smile

When I look at you I see your eyes
looking back at me with a hope
that nothing bad will ever happen
and a glow that promises good times ahead

All my love for you seeps through me
and I wonder if you know
know how I feel, how I long to feel
how I've dreamed of feeling

I never dreamed of feeling this way
awaiting our next meeting as if it were our last
I catch myself thinking of you whenever I'm alone
and when I'm with you it takes all that I have
to keep from telling you all my hopes and dreams

Your smile, so true, sweeps me up
takes me higher than I've ever been
it brings me close to you
so close that all I can do is love you

I try to breathe but I gasp for air
the sick air I've grown accusted to breathing
the air of the world that tells me to live without love
to live for myself and not for love

But your smile offers so much more
mornings full of warm hugs and cheerful greetings
days full of life and light
nights full of laughter and smiling tears

What more can I do while I'm drowning in your smile?

Empty Kleenex Box

One girl
One summer
One week
One night
One moment
One heart broken
Countless tears cried

A look from across the room
A connection made
An attraction increasing
An hour apart lasts forever
A night together lasts a moment

Feelings shared, trust earned
Tears flow, embraces comfort
Even the darkest of nights
Smiles against crashing waves

A week's worth of afternoons
A journey along the sea
A trip across the country
A plane ride far from home

Weeks of waiting
A moment of truth
The realization of love lost
And a heart now broken
But a girl full of tears
Now a woman waiting
for another time
another love
