Heartfelt Sorrow
by
Son of Asa Doome
He still begins each day
Just the same as before
As he wakes he's lookin' back
Then his heart falls through the floor
He don't know what he did this time to make her go away
If you point yer ear towards the wind
You can faintly hear him say
I don't know what I did this time but I'm cryin' anyway
I can't see any colors now
The whole world's turnin' grey
If you would please just come back and talk to me
If only I could see yer face again
I can promise you now from this day on you won't be sad again
Closing her eyes she turned her back on him
Then she slowly walked away
She climbs into her car and glances back
To see the tears run down his face,
She starts to cry as she drives away
And she doesn't know where to go
Her whole life she had planned out with him
Had just gone up in smoke
She doesn't know why she ran from him
And she cant go back again
She runs outta gas on the outskirts of town
Slams the door and walks away
It starts to come a pourin' down just as if angels were cryin' from above
She throws her keys and just gives up
And now she's cryin' in the rain
You can find him sittin' at the bar
Askin' for a double please
He thinks to himself
Without this small glass of liquid posion
I'd walk around on my knees
He stares into the distance as the world around him fades away
And he prays to god for the strength
To get up off his knees again
If only he could walk a straight line again
He'd do his best from this day on
To never stray beyond the path again
He's lost everything in his entire life that meant anything to him
It's as if he's a lost soul wondering this world
Until he finds her again
She gets up off her knees and she tries to make it down the road
With no coat and no one near she can't fight off the cold
She simply cries out to GOD
And screams out for his help
Hoping just to see a sign
It is far too late cause by this time she is far too blind to see anything flicker in the sky
They both lost hope and now their gone
Doomed to wonder this world alone
If only they could point their ears toward the wind
It might just guide them home

A bit of water pooled
in a deep corner of an eye
only for a fleeting moment
and soon vanished
into a well of her sisters

He gave it all he had, and so...left nothing to himself; yet...found peaceful mind and full heart; then...slept the sleep of innocence. He dreamed of her...and she of
him; they became one again and...have not been seen
since.

And so, . . . an other ONE saw those eyes.
A mere glance told a distant tale,
So intense, so sensitive;
The ONE allowed a gentle smile . . .
In company with a single teardrop
That could not bear to fall
Or dampen that oh-so-lovely smile.
As ONE slipped away . . .
Those eyes dared a meer glance, then closed . . .
As longing fairly faded in swift retreat
To return for the hiding place;
Always near enough for rapid escape,
Where solitude feigned comfort,
And comfort denied fear.
Yet, desire existed . . .
Fleeting for a distant tale.
