Tears On My Face

Like the rhythmic push of the tide
The waves reach the shore, they hit, they collide.
Then leaving just as fast, they subside
I hope they'll come back another time

Each time they come their power grows stronger
Pushing further up shore, closer to the heart
The waves they're overwhelming, but how much longer?
Will they stay on this shore? Not tear me apart?

Beautiful waves. I beg them to stay
But all they'll do is keep pulling away.
Maybe I'll see those waves again some day, 
But for now, all I have left are these ocean tears on my face.



Yeah, so....when I have a lot on my mind and I'm having trouble sorting it out I write "songs." They all turn out pretty depressing (go figure :P). Really, it's just poetry because there is no music to them, but hopefully some day I'll put them to some lovely melancholy music so people can feel sad with me. ;-) This is the one I wrote tonight.
