Just when I thought things couldn’t get any better,

Of course they change for the worse

And leave me feeling sad.

My eyes can’t get any wetter,

I feel like I’m under a curse

That is making things go bad.

But I promise to make my eyes dry

And my feelings be locked away

Not one more tear will fall down this cheek.

No longer will I always cry

When things don’t go my way

I’ll no longer be weak.

I won’t cry even when love feels like it only goes one way

And I will not cry for anyone

Not even for the one who has my heart.

I won’t cry not even when I hear someone say

That with me they never have fun

Even if my soul gets ripped apart.

I won’t shed not one tear

Especially for someone I love

I will not let my emotions out anymore.

My biggest fear

And wish from above

Is that I end up worse that I ever was before.
