enchanted

these tears have your name written all over them
the trails they leave down my face scream for you
and yet, you will never know.

you say you care
you say you are not going anywhere
you say so many things

when you leave, what am I to do?
I don't doubt that you have feelings for me,
I do doubt what exactly they are

I wish I could be nonchalant about this
I wish I wasn't completely and utterly wrapped up in this
I wish you would stop breaking my heart
I wish I could stop letting you.

  1. If this is a related song that you have written, then I haven't heard it yet. Let me know about it....

    The tears belong to them and the smiles they left behind... now lost though.. belong to them as well and we belong to them.

  2. from time to time I attempt to write poetry, this is one of those times..

    they do belong to them....and I'm not sure about you, by my guy really doesn't know - for my sanity I can't let him. how is it that something that should be so simple and and lovely can take so much?

  5. Maybe they know.. but they are acting ignorant? Because they think it's not gonna work out...

  6. it possible....I think people generally act ignorant to things that are or could become unpleasant.

  7. But that's not it is supposed to end. I think we deserve more than just ignorance...isn't it?

  8. we do, everyone does, but unfortunately freewill then comes into play and tends to bring it's friend ignorance along for the ride.

    I think if we had the capacity, we would leave those people who hurt us and stay with those people who love us. Unfortunately, this is rarely the reality.....which is usually the exact opposite.

  9. Absolutely true... I believe there is someone who would be thinking the same for us as we think about those we love. But we fail to see their existence. That's why lyf is complicated and that's why it sucks.

  10. unfortunately that is in fact true more often than not; but there is always hope that we might see them - or they might get tired of us not noticing and just come out and tell us.

    above all, i think it keeps life interesting (although, sometimes it's more heartbreaking than others).

  11. That's the irony of lyf... It keeps killing you... Softly !!!
