All Too Familiar
The teardrops fall like drops of rain,
splashing against your broken heart.
And subjected to years of tears;
paper promises fall apart.
Your fate is all too familiar;
you found the soulmate of your dreams.
And then, doubt somehow surges up,
initiating silent screams.
Reacting to fading feelings;
hope morphs into pain and remorse.
For on the pathway to your heart;
love irrevocably changed course.
Reality is awakened
by the sound of a slamming door.
And you're no longer able to
reignite love's flame anymore.
You experience depression;
love's departure seems surreal.
And you rely on time to help
carry you beyond this ordeal.
