Tears of Rain

My heart encased in carapace

No longer can love cause me pain

My eyes are blind to all that lace

Whilst tears are only caused by rain.

 

No longer can love cause me pain

As passion’s dreams are left to rust

Whilst tears are only caused by rain

Her sweetest smile had turned to dust.

 

As passion’s dreams are left to rust

I buried love too deep inside

Her sweetest smile had turned to dust

No place remains where dreams collide.

 

My eyes are blind to all that lace

My heart encased in carapace.
