Heart Tales

And still it plagues my mind
How did this happen?
It was supposed to be fate.
Coincidences like that just don't happen!

But once again I'm lying on the floor of my room
Surrounded by mementoes of love lost
Items forever imbued with memories
Wondering where it all went wrong.

Trying not to cry as I stare at the ceiling
Sad songs on the radio
Making me tearful
It’s not right to cry in public...I can't help it.

An age ago you told me not to cry
I tried my best, I didn't cry,
But now the floodgates open
And I'm drowning in my sorrow.

Your ghostly touch haunts me
The memory too painful to think on
Yet I cannot escape it
Everything reminds me of you.

Why do I love so readily?
I only ever get hurt.
I've lost count of the heart breaks.
Lost track of the times I've played this CD.

Barbara Streisand...always Barbara Streisand.
"Kiss me in the rain; make me feel like I'm a child again"
I feel the memory of your kiss on my lips
As the rain drenched us both.

I wanted to dance with you as it fell,
To dance and kiss you like the world didn't matter
To lay beneath the stars on a warm summers evening
Counting the ways we loved each other.

I can't help wonder...
Was I moving to slowly?
Would things be different if I wasn't so unsure of myself?
It felt so right being with you.

I'm naive, if it wasn't meant to be
It wasn't meant to be
I only wish it didn't hurt so much.
At least my honour is still mine.

How many more times must I go through this?
Until I find the one I'm looking for?
The one destiny has planned
My gift from the divine?

Still at least I'm my own woman once more
Time to celebrate my femininity
Single woman, I don't need a man to define me
I am me.

Celtic, confident, assured.
I am Keridwen.
