Tears Tell a Story

Pain engulfs a heart unable to love
Memories torture a woman refusing to care
Death intrudes on a child still unborn
Shadows hide the secrets lurking there
Tears tell a story words never could
Time marks a path no one can cross
Good-bye offers escape but no relief
Life is haunted by tragedy and loss
Lies sealed a fate that can't be altered
Love offers answers but goes ignored
Dreams provide hope for the innocent
Truth lies behind doors unexplored
Heart left dead by mistakes of the past
Regrets beckon wanting to make it right
Destiny lost to a war of words
Apparent only by tears you cry at night
