For the loved and the Damned | poems

You

In the midnight rain
tears fall,
in the midnight rain
we say our goodbyes,
in the midnight rain
we cry.

I never wanted you to think this way,
that I would leave you so early in the morning.
But I needed to keep myself at bay
my heart would not stop churning.

You fought me so often
and I really did try,
to stop your tears from falling,
but you never, stopped mine.

I could say,
that I cried in the rain,
the night we said our goodbyes.
But oh my dear I'm sorry, those tears, were the sky's.

I loved you more than the stars
your heart fell before my own.
But you took both hearts that day,
now I have an empty chest sewn.

I left my life to give you yours-
was that not enough for you?
'Cause yet I gave you everything,
you choired the blues.

Though you were the one who called it quits,

I

Needed

Out.

I loved you dear I really did,
but you left my heart a drought.

In the midnight rain
your tears fell.
In the midnight rain
we said our goodbyes,
in the midnight rain
You cried.
