Leaving

Love notes keep falling from the skies

Tear-drops twinkle as they fall from my eyes

Words unfeeling they're so deceiving

I can't understand the emotions I'm receiving

Fist-clenched hands are shaking as I cry

Silent tears are streaming from my eyes

I heard what you said, but I don't believe it

I reach for your hand, but you try not to see it

You turn to leave, I won't let you go

I have all these feelings….for you, I must show

I try to explain, to you….and myself

How I placed our love so high on a shelf

Left there alone, neither willing to trust

The bonds of our love, began to rust

But before this was all said and done

Before all the heart-breaks and struggles were won

You once said "Forever, I'll love you" a bitter-sweet lie

And now you have left me, on my doorstep to cry
