Ba Hamba

Go on now, I'm tired of crying. You can leave now, I won't stop you. I'm so tired of crying. Many times i've pulled you back in my arms and stopped you from leaving, but now no. Go on now.
If this is love, then it's not real. For every smile i have, two tear drops take its place. Enough now baby, I can't take it anymore.
You saw me as your queen; you treat me now as your servant. You talked to me as your equal, your partner; now you ignore me. I was your friend; now I'm just your subordinate. Leave, my love, I cannot take anymore.
As I watch you walk away, proud and never looking back, my heart breaks. But I will not cry. For I know no man is worth my tears, and the one who is will never make me cry.

Angel eyes...

Notice the color of your eyes when you cry,
and the smiles you let pass by, and
how your eyes hurt
when your angel weeps.
And instead of asking why, or when this will be,
love truly and deeply
the language never to be understood by men.
Maybe then, there'll be one more winged life in the world...

from miles to miles
we were apart
ever since our
relationship started.
day to day
i pray
but all i get is loud silence
I've gotten used to the
sounds of my heart beating
really loudly every time I
hear your voice behind me
and realize that it is not you
but the sound of some other man's laughter
gazing deeply into his love's eyes
and I sigh and continue walking
thinking all the time to myself
"don't think about it"
Tripping over my thoughts and
my emotions
hugging my pillow so tight afraid
that if i actually listen i
will actually break down and cry and
totally lose it.
Time
has stopped.
Eternity
as I do not know it
has begun.
day stretches out and I
feel every second of every
minute of every hour
and the night becomes even
longer i'm cold
and alone
and i miss you
