Words and Tears
One thousand words
One thousand tears
from crying in the dark.
There is nothing for us anymore.

Moments are but a second
and memories last a lifetime,
but memories are all we have.

Confusion from mixed emotions
Is it possible to love and hate together?
How difficult to explain
what the heart feels.

Days and weeks and months and years
Will pass away:
That is the way of time.
And through time all people change,
Because one cannot remain the same forever.

Sometimes we believe that this is perfect,
That everything should stay this way.
But we must accept life's necessity.
for otherwise we would not know that which we know now.

A thousand words and tears
Cannot change the past,
But maybe now,
thise words and tears
can change what is to come.
