Why this Tear?
Why Now?
Why, after all the lies, the deciet,
and the subsequent heartbreak,
does the sound of your voice still captivate me?
Why, now that the wound you left in my soul
has finally begun to heal,
does the distant music of your laughter still haunt me?
In my mind, I am finally over you,
over the love, the pain, and the aching,
But it seems, someone forgot to tell my heart.
