My tear drops stain my pillow
The stains are time capsules
They hold each moment of sadness
And all the words I couldn't say

When I'm sad I lay in my bed
I daydream of a different life
I often see a house
A small one with a fenced in yard
And a garden filled with beautiful pale pastel tulips
The house holds all my dreams
It holds everything I've ever wanted
The worst part about my daydreams is that I can't find the key to the house
But I love imagining whats in there

My tear drops stain my pillow
When I see the stains
They remind me that im a survivor
They remind me that I survived the hurtful memory those stains were tied to

The stains will eventually fade
Just like the hurt
The hurt

My reservoir of tears
Ran dry many years ago
A time i cannot forget
But since i got to know you
My eyes again started to tear
They do not shed tears for me
They shed tears for you
Now i tear in laughter
When you say funny things
These are tears of happiness  
That warm my heart within.
