Tears Of Love And Vigor

She feel she is alone
like nobody cares
She feel that she is invisible
like she isn’t even their
she want to scream
she feels she's living in hell
she’s preparing to end it all now
but tears begin to fall.
the tears of love and vigor
the feelings are one worth of living.
the way they connect her to life.
for once she doesn't feel so alienated.

she looks down at her reflection
it scares her to see how strong she is
to see the pain in her eyes
it truly scares her.
to think just a second ago she was preparing to end her life
and now she has a whole new outlook on life.

her true strength its not one, but its many.
it scares me to see how strong she is.
to see the pain in her eyes,
the tears running down her eyes.

the tears of love and vigor
the feelings are one worth of living
the way they connect me with her
is impossible
