Gripping Tears

by Baby Rainbow   May 28, 2013


Screwing my eyes shut as tightly as I can,
yet they never close tight enough. Nothing seems
to erase the memories that grip onto my tears.

I loved you so much with all of my heart
and I know that you loved me too. But sometimes
I wish it just never happened, that I never met you
and we never fell in love.

Because with your love came hopes and dreams,
a life together and a happily ever after. But when
you died, that future collapsed, burning my whole
world down.

Now, only I remain, in the pile of ashes that should
have been our love. And I screw my eyes shut as
tightly as I can because of all the memories keep
gripping onto my tears, but my eyes will never
open for them to fall.

I will never be ready to let you go -

I will never say goodbye.

    You don't have to say goodbye, you can say, until we meet again... and just think what life would have been like if you never met, I think it's best to have experienced the love and the happiness, and have such beautiful memories... dreams may not have come true then, but you can make new dreams and follow those... This was very heartfelt Saffie
