A MILLION TEARS AGO

I remember a time
When life seemed so sweet
My heart ached from anticipation
Awaiting what each new day would bring
I knew you would be there with open arms
Ready to hold me
Making my life complete
But all that was a million tear’s ago.
Today, I wrestle with the sun
Not ready to face a new day
For I know I will be facing it alone
You are no longer there
To hold me and to love me
I may never understand
The decisions you made
But I know I lost my best friend
But all that was a million tear’s ago
I have tried to forget
I have tried to forgive
But sometimes all the glue in the world
Cannot mend a heart as broken as mine
I loved you
And I believed that you loved me
But reality can be a cruel thing
I want to go on
I want to feel as I did back then
But that was a million tear’s ago
And they have washed my life away.
