Scarlet Tears By Paul Wilson I need someone too make me laugh cause it feels better than crying I'd rather have a smile on my face than too watch myself slowly dying Scarlet teardrops leave their stains on this broken heart inside of me I was always there for you but you were never there for me Sands of time begin their last spiral downwards into regret My heart still aches for you but I curse the day we met They say time heals all wounds but nothing heals a broken heart The end of me has just begun today my world was torn apart Reflections in the mirror shows the sadness within my heart I wonder if time will wait for me and let me make a new start You said I was all washed up that you and I were through I should have seen it coming but didn't have a clue The day is almost over so we hit a couple of bars We'll have a drink or two and forget about being soap opera stars ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

Linda...Glad I could change your tears into laughter. Thanks for reading and your caring reply...Paul WindWalker...Glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for the reply...Paul Lee J...I really don't see how those soap stars can seperate themselves from their professional life and their real lives. Thanks for the reply...Paul Susan...They do so many really strange things on soaps,I don't know how anyone can keep up with it. I really appreciate you reply...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |
