Tear Stained Memories

With each tick of the clock

I’m reminded more of you

What should be distant memories

Still tear my heart in two

With each thought of you

I fall a lil deeper in

Life without you hurts too much

I don’t know where to begin

Everyone just says move on

Leave the painful memories

Just start all over again

It’ll be better eventually

But with each passing day

I stay lost inside my mind

My escape seems impossible

No matter how hard I try

These tear stained memories

Just can’t be washed away

No matter what I do

The pain just doesn’t fade

I tell myself to be strong

But letting go isn’t easy

Just can’t seem to forget

These tear stained memories

With each passing minute

I hope the pain will fade

Hoping somehow the sunrise

Will make it all go away

Maybe with each tear I wipe

It will be one less memory

And then all these thoughts

Will be forgotten eventually
