Tears flow down my cheek
about memories of a love past.
A man I loved.
Hurt me without repentance.
Left me feeling sad and blue
and broke my heart in two.
This man
I loved and desired.
Once set my heart on fire.
I felt the intensity of his wrath.
It was painful and everlasting.
I fight to understand how
he could on one hand
be a wonderful man
and otherwise,
be one I hated.
It seemed that together
we could never be.
Together we didn’t mix.
Our personalities were so different
that we never achieved understanding.
I fight so hard to dry these tears of pain.
Deep in my heart
these feelings remain.
Maybe one day,
these feelings will go away.
And my tears of pain will disappear.
