Betrayal

Tears falling down my face like raindrops on a window pane.
The sad music reflecting the emptiness that's deep within my soul.
I gave you love in return you gave me pain.

To live is to love oh so I heard, but love can fade away with the smallest of words.
How easy you have forgotten the way you could light up my life.
Beautiful sunrises I can no longer see,
nor can my heart hear your voice whispering back to me.

Your indifference shattered my heart with such abandon.
The tears reflecting off my soul like storm clouds on the water.
The passion of dying embers roaring deep within my heart.
I gave to you what I could of me and now my soul begs to be free.
Free of all the shame , hurt and pain that you gave to me.

I will light my flame anew and I will regain the warmth within my soul.
My heart will drown in memories of your passion,
until the sun shines once again calling me telling me to let you go.
Only then can my tears let go, only then.
