Tears
After all these years,
All I have to show for is tears.
I wanted to be with you for life,
Me being your wife.
Isn’t that nice?
No. Not at all.
You were sweet and neat.
But something dreadful happened.
I don’t know what but this is really bad luck.
It’s like I’m in love all by myself,
After this relationship, I fear I’m all that’s going to be left.
Tears pour down my cheeks,
Like leaks
In the wall.
This relationship is a bridge that will soon fall.
