Sea of Tears

by Jada Andrews - Capricorn

Fallen Tears

As I gazed into your eyes, 
I was lost in a sea of tears, 
as deep and blue as my soul.
For I knew you could never be mine.
The tears streamed down my face
like rivers from the tallest mountain,
and all I could do is turn away, 
so you wouldn't see the pain in my soul.
For I would never let you see me cry.
I would never forgive myself
if I ever caused you the slightest 
amount of guilt, or pain, or sadness.
I love you too much to let you hurt.
So I drown alone in my ocean of tears,
and remember my last sight of you.
Your eyes, as blue as the sea,
knowing you'll never love me.
