How come,

When I see you now,

My chest tightens up?

Why do I find myself,

Wanting to cry?

Oh, if I saved all my tears,

I could drown,

Trying to count them all.

You smile,

Knowing not the pain,

I feel.

Every moment,

Feels like eternity.

Wandering aimlessly,

Through my mind,

Searching for a reason.

The reason why,

I feel the way I do.

My tears evaporate,

Under the harsh sun.

I look at you again,

Even though I know,

What will happen next.

I realize through my tears,

That you touched my heart,

And gave me,

My brand new start.
