Tears

The tears fall, I don't know why
they pour and pour as I cry.
I can't stop the pain that lies deep in my heart
so the tears pour at night.

The hurt and pain you have caused
will stay with me all my life.
And the funny thing about it
you don't even know I'm in pain.

You don't know my heart burns for your love
I ask myself time and time again
what did I do to deserve this shit???
and I can only come up with one answer,

You are selfish and you don't deserve love
you should have to suffer as did I.
You need to know what it feels like
to love someone and not have it returned.

I don't ask for money nor do I ask for a car
all I ask is that you treat me like your child
so that this pain in my heart will come to an end.

Now is that too much to ask of a father who was never there
a father who never showed emotion
you never gave a shit and probably never will.

And that's a damn shame next time you should
think before you lie down
because I would hate for you to mess up someone's life
just like you did mine.

I would hate for another child to always wonder
what they did wrong and why they couldn't control their tears
it's not fair and no one should have to go through it.

My tears burn my face as they stroll down, but it's o-kay
I'll survive because I have a strong mother who cares,
and won't ever let me fall.

tears of anger, tears of rage

And all this could stop
if you would only say my daughter
I truly do love you and I understand your pain.

But until then my tears will fall, but now I know why
but I still can't stop the pain that burns deep in my heart.
Only you can do that If you step up to the plate.
