Heartfelt Tears

The sorrow in my heart
Is way too much to bear
I seek companionship
But can't find it anywhere

Alone and confused
Mistreated and abused
Lifes not been good to me
Do I really have much to lose?

I've tried and tried
No lack of integrity
But all of my failures
Are getting the best of me

There's a light in my life
Someone whos caring
But time is fading
I'm beginning to lose my bearing

Why me
Dear God,
Why me?

Is this punishment
From a past life mistake?
Ive begged for your forgiveness
Can't this Hell just abate?

Darkness surrounds me
Light keeps fading
The real thing that's killing me
Is all of this waiting

But the light that I do have
Still shines in the distance
With beautiful eyes of compassion
And not a hint of conviction

She warms my heart
And makes me feel comfort
In her I trust
My life shall prosper

These inner tears dry up
Like raindrops on a humid day
When I sit in her presence
And am blessed to see her beautiful face

But life is cruel
The majority of mankind is too
And these tears return
When I bid her adeu

For her I would promise
The sun and the moon
And she knows that I would keep it
She knows that I am true

These words are from the heart
And are from the deepest part
No matter where we might be
You are always close to my heart

It may seem awkward
And this I can understand
But I have to keep it 100
Because I am a true man

I'm battered and broken
But I know you can mend
My big broken heart
Do you think that you can?
