Drowning in my tears



In our eyes we lost sight without taking our eyes off each other,
We didn't say a word as I watched you leave, seeing our love disappearing from a distance,
I only wish you will love as I have loved you hoping you may find a love as crazy as mine,
I wish I had said everything I knew and what I manage to keep for later but in all aspects I know it's much too late,
Time will speak for I will always be careful with my words for I definitely won't change the way my heart gives out what is pure and true that brings joy to others.
I ended up with someone else as you ended up with many more yet we could never love another as we loved each other again,
For each day that passes by you have taken a little of my heart away as you have taken a bite of my life with you when you left without saying goodbye.
People leave when others will depart but the way they left will always remain leaving an impact and this is why I keep drowning in my tears daily for I will forever miss you,
Love always from a son to his departed mother may you rest in peace my angel Francillia H.Larcher
