The first tear
Was bold and clear
Trailing down
And landing without a sound
The first tear is gone
To be forgotten but not for long
The second tear wasn't far behind
I don't need to rewind
To see the scene that caused this break
I wish I could convince myself that it was fake
Tear number three
Was the only one I set free
The others had been living inside
I didn't seem to mind
But deep down I knew the pain
Was going to come all the same
Each tear was in the past
Still I knew that i couldn't survive another blast
Because each tear ripped out another piece of my heart
And I know tear number four has to start
It's path trickling down the center
Tearing my heart in two until it can't remember
How to love
There isn’t even a possibility of help from above
Because now I have become one of my greatest fears
A heartless creature, destroyed by tears

My goal is to make other people happy.  But how am i supposed to do that if i can't say that i am happy? How can i be that good helping person if i can't even be that for myself? How?

All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.

Not bad, not bad at all. You did a great job on this, so vivid, so clean. Keep it up, you got some talent there.

It's nicer to think dear, pretty thoughts and keep them in one's heart, like treasures. I don't like to have them laughed at or wondered over.
