 Heartache Trip
(As with almsot all of what I write, I don't spend much time editing and most of what are posted are the first time writes. This is no exception and yes I know it probably can me modified to make it better so please feel free to blast it if it deserves it.)

Heartache Trip

He tells her that he loves her
As he stares into her eyes
She feels he isn't sure
And hopes they aren't just lies

She's heard these words before
From many other lips
Left standing at the door
Another heartache trip

She drinks a glass of wine
And looks around the room
Couples all around her
She stares up at the moon

Her heart's been left unstable
From crying many tears
She doesn't feel she's able
Because of many fears

He reaches out to touch her
And takes her hand in his
He tells her that he loves her
Then gives her hand a kiss

With music playing softly
And moon and stars above
He says she's looking pretty
She's all that he thinks of

He reaches in his pocket
Her heart begins to sink
He pulls out a gold locket
Inside's a diamond ring

He cannot live without her
He's waited all his life
“This ring goes on your finger
Will you become my wife?”

She cannot speak a word
As tears fall from her eyes
The words that she's just heard
She's knows they aren't just lies

This man he truly loves her
She knows it in her heart
This ring on her finger
A sign of a brand new start

The evening's almost over
She finally got her wish
She'll never travel another
Lonely heartache trip
