From my eyes,
you will see
the way my
heart feels
for you and
how much i
miss you.
There,
the tears of
love freely flows
like the stream
down my cheeks.
My face stained
of tears,
tells the tale of
how much all
these made
me feel.
From my shaky
strained voice,
you already
knew how much
I've cried.
But you'll never
see how my
heart really hurts.
The pain of
the brokenness is
what keeps
my heart awake
at night.
The thoughts of
you kills my joy
and rob me
of peaceful sleep.
This restlessness
makes me feel
like drinking tequila
tonight.
But I'll wait
awhile to see
if the humming birds
will bring the
news of you
in the morning.
This moment,
the road is
still empty of the
sight of you
as I watch.
Even now i
can't see the
dust on the road
rising to tell
me that you
are close by.
I will just
sit out here
tonight and watch
the moon and
count the stars
until the morning
greets me with
the songs of
the birds.
