Crimson Tears of the Heart

by The Flame Within   Sep 6, 2005


Time and time again i find something to hold onto that i cant hold on to anymore

another piece of my life falls away, my fragile heart slowly bleeds out its crimson tears.

the sorrow seems to reach no end, Every step i take forward throws me two more steps back.

The tears of my heart flow in perfect harmony, this pain seems so peaceful.

I lay down and close my eyes hoping to wake up to a comforting place,

but i open to my Hell on earth known as reality, truth sinks in as another piece of i have left of my life falls away.

I embrace my remains, clinging tightly to my simple joys, my heart is all that stands now. It will not be broken

My body may bend, my mind broken, and my life will drowned in my hearts tears.

But my Heart will stand when there is nothing left to hold

    Apparently you took my goodbye the wrong way. This is what I MEANT it as.

    I've given up....I'm through with it all....I love you with everything, but all I've got isn't enough. My world...which used to be hard before, is massively difficult and I can't take it ANYMORE...I won't. I don't want to fall in love again, I don't want to breath another breathe if I'm not sharing it with someone, and I don't want to be cold when I could be loved. And like I said, I don't want to be in love again. It all hurts too much.

    And I've reached the last line.

    I don't know when you'll know what's become of me...who you'll hear it from, or what they'll say. Yes, I am stupid for doing this, but I hope that you'll be able to forgive me in some way, someday.

    I've raised myself to this, and everyone hates this...this thing that I've become. I'm not beautiful. I'm the exact opposite. I don't know what you EVER saw in me, but I'm tired of looking.

    This is my last goodbye. This is the last.

    And if by some miracle, I make it through this, then who knows what will happen.

    Until then, I'm just a memory.

    All my love even after death,

    You left me behind didn't you?? I'm just.....a part of the past.....another regret?

    I try but I appear to be failing at everything..and the times when I just EXPECTED you to show up....they're over...and even I can see that.....

    So this is my goodbye.....I'm so sorry for all that we've gone through...and I want to thank you for taking me this far...I'm really going to miss you....
