Moments of Truth
Yesterday, I saw you walking alone toward me, my heart was beating so fast I was happy that I could see you again.
I smiled at you when you looked up at me, but you weren’t smiling back at me.
Our distance might have been close but your eyes and your looks told that we could never be the same again.
When you walked pass me without saying hello, without a single look, it broke my heart silently.
I turned to look as you slowly grew smaller and smaller.
The distance once again grew longer and farther away.
I didn’t know what to do, what to say, I just stood there with all my heart, all the silly hopes that you’d once again reappear in the distance, but hopes and dreams were shattered.
Just a mirror of yesterday when the morning came and the hours grew longer without you.
I turned to walk away, walked away but my heart just wanted one desperate second to glance back to the distance, hoping for a glimpse of your smile.
But I knew that the smile that belonged to me yesterday had gone forever, I could never see that smile again, it had forever passed me by.
I'm Not The One You Love
One day you went away somewhere far from where our love was.
You wrote to me each week.
When I read your letters I was so happy, every letter I got from you proved the love you had for me.
Every word I saw with my eyes reminded me so much of those happy times we spent together.
One beautiful afternoon the sun rose above the horizon and I heard that you had come home.
I was so happy with joy, the tears flew through my heart and soul.
I came to see you and the heartbreak started like the sudden rain.
Beside you on your tender arms were the arms and hands of someone else.
You looked at me and I looked at you, I wanted to smile but it faded away, I wanted to cry but I didn’t want you to see me sad.
You forced a smile on your face and so did I.
That night we stood at the creek and talked, distance apart, we no longer shared the love.
We looked at each other but all we saw were the fading images, the dying memories of yesterday that we shared, that we thought would last forever.
When you walked away leaving me standing beneath the moonlight, I knew finally that it was over between us.
When Love Has Flown Away
Christmas is coming, I’m here hanging up the lights
and as I watch each light flashes I suddenly remember of you.
Remember your love, your smile, like I still have you near me,
Like I still have you in my life.
Your warmth is still here, your love is still here in my heart but you are gone.
When love dies, it just dies like the winter snow.
Your love was bright, it was beautiful and I loved you,
But when you said you weren’t in love with me I was sad,
I was hurting deep inside. When love has flown away
There’s nothing that you can do or say to make love stay back with you.
You were the snow outside my door, when you came winter was warm,
The snow was pretty and it was bright. When you broke my heart
and walked off the snow melted away and winter was cold,
With the cruel wing flashing against my face.
Many winters we spent together, we were so much in love.
This winter I’m without you and I know you won’t be
coming back to me sooner or later.
This winter is lonely, many winters later I’ll always be alone without you.
When love has flown away it does fly far away.
