In my mind I know…but my heart remembers.
In my mind I know that I’m wasting my time .
That there’s not future for you and I
But my heart remembers your loving touch .
My name on your lips echoing through the night.
In my mind I know that I’d be better off alone
That I hurt a lot when you push me aside
But then ,my heart remembers the softness of your lips
And the blissful feeling every time we kiss
My mind is telling me …wake up fool ! you are the last thing on his mind
But my heart …my heart doesn’t want to hear my mind speaking
And it waits in hope , that perhaps one day you will us embrace
And then your heart and mine will sing our song in unison as yesterday
My mind knows of all my pain …of every tear that I’ve shed
The lonely nights … The emptiness …The broken dreams
The painful truth of loving you …and you …you not loving me..
You say you do ,but that …that can’t be true
Another night at home alone ,of you I’ve heard no word at all
This longing feeling …this saudade that never ends …this wait in vain
Rejected ,ignored ,unwanted in distress . I can’t go any longer ,I need this to end
But my heart’s stoically holding on to the thinnest of threads…and into the darkness keeps repeating your name .
I close my eyes embracing myself ,my arms so tight to suffocate this pain
I rock my head in violent shakes to expel any hopes I might still have left
But my heart remembers how beautiful it can be …and in agony utters your name.
I feel powerless against myself …and tears flow …like acid rain
Eroding my soul …a little more …every passing day.
This is beautiful,nmod-very emotional, very moving
love from Mxxx
