  A Love Without Good-byes

  by  Alexander


A lifetime filled with cheating hearts, all echo from my past.
The love so true's and I love you's, each one was meant to last.
So fine this line of sharing, built with honesty and trust.
Each vow now left inside my head, to slowly gather dust.

I struggle to tomorrow, searching hope, yet walking blind.
While broken dreams and silent screams play re-runs in my mind.
I try to shake each past mistake, and meet what lies ahead.
While hearing cold reminders of these promises once said.

It's hard to feel whats wrong from real when shadows dim the light.
I close my eyes and dream a dream of heaven every night.
Is all I know, this history I hold, a guiding hand ?
These scars I show, a lesson that I yet don't understand.

Another day awaits me, in this life I call my own.
A cruel delay frustrates me, as I face this world alone.
Let words once said and tears long shed, rest peaceful in this heart,
I know the pain of love in vain will always play its part.

Each night I wait for slumber, so that once again I steal,
A moments bliss with lovers lost, I know cannot be real.
With open arms I welcome such new dreams that may arise,
I only pray to find one day, a love... without good-byes.

Anyone who can write like that is deserving of a love with no good-byes.

Beautifully and lyrically penned.

Loving Light,
EA
