Tears of Love

 RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS


Tears of Love

 

There was a woman who shared her love

As if it were a treasure

She handed it out with gentle gloves

Delivering at her pleasure

When she was done she held it in

No more shall you enjoy

She gave you just a taste of sin

As if you were her toy

 

There was a man who loved her well

Who gave his heart in full

Her secrets he swore not to tell

He buried them in a hole

When it was done he almost fell

Where none could ever find him

A tragic place that some call hell

And watched his light grow dim

 

He wrote of love in memories

A love so pure and true

It lived but in his fantasies

A love he never knew

But in his heart he felt it all

A love for all the ages

A love that rose and could not fall

A love that grew in stages

 

There was a man who lived in dreams

He never knew a love so dear

Though love may not be what it seems

He measured love in tears
