Broken Promises

Another dark and empty night.
My tears are lost in falling rain.
As I listen to the thunder,
watching the rain beat down.
My heart is full of sorrow.
My heart is full of pain.
I am aching with the dead of night.
Love was here and gone,
like a shadow in the night.
Shadows of another day,
will soon be upon me.
I will awaken tommorrow
and still be alone.
Tears will dry,
until night falls again.
When I will be trapped
inside myself again.
Know i must remain in
this silent web of sorrow.
No one to break me free.
Not even me.
Can you remember my name?
As I flow through your life?
I am the echo of your past,
a distant time.
A time full of broken promises.
And dreams I will never see come true.
If you hear me talking,
on the wind.
Know you can never hide,
from the voice of the woman who loves you.
Listen to my silent whispers,
calling out your name.
Knowing that I will forever
be the thorn in your rose.
A shadow in your night.
A distant faded memory.
And now I know
you are too afraid
of the love and passion
that we share.
Always running from it.
Never embracing it.
