Such Sad Tears

Such Sad Tears

A Poem by Althelia Marie Caine

I catch my breath,

 

When he walks by,

 

No matter what I do,

 

I can't help but try not to cry.

 

I sit up late at night,

 

Thinking about what I gave up,

 

What could I have done,

 

To keep him from walking away from me?

 

/Please, look into my tear stained eyes,

And tell me that you still love me/

 

Can I go through life without him?

 

Knowing that he is every minute on my mind?

 

Everytime I hear our song,

 

My eyes fill up with such sad tears,

 

Can he not see me weeping here?

 

Sobbing quietly in despair?

 

I don't know if I can go on like this,

 

I can't live without him by my side.

 

/Please look into my tear stained eyes

And tell me that you will hold me tight/

 

The shingles on the roof of my aching heart,

 

Are falling away from that shattered emptiness,

 

I can't go on without him,

 

I don't even want to try,

 

I pray every minute of everyday,

 

That he will love me one more time,

 

My heart can't beat anymore,

 

Without his warmth to keep me here,

 

/Please look into my tear stained eyes,

And tell me that you want me to be yours/
