the tears fill my eyes and i remember!

then the tears filled my eyes and i remembered I'm human

a little trigger on the sore spot and it came exploding

thinking about memories of have been

dreams of today

what could be's of tomorrow

i smile admist my pain, piled up over all these years, and how much it hurts is actually why i smile so bright and wide

ironic isn't it?!

i look at all those (tears) that have filled rivers and and those still to come and flood lands to reunite the continents yet again!

every time i feel the urge to break down i remember all that i have lived through

and ill be damned if ill be broken now after the battle that have been!

the tears fill my eyes and I remember I'm human, but even more important I remember that I'M ALIVE and I have overcome.

my past loves, my past hates, my past do's and my past could have dones

I remember I've gotten older

not by the number of years, not by the wrinkles I've inherited

nor the number of migraines that have kept me in bed or the "I need a hug"s that I have had ..

the tears fill my eyes and I remember, all the reason I have to smile

how my past cries have helped me get a better look at myself in the mirror!

the heartbreaks, ya they miss me now, haha but I thank them

the hearts I've broken, I never had the right.by karma I have paid off that debt!

the misplaced and misdiagnosed emotion, had a bit to do with hormone rages but gained me better intelligence...I AM a woman!

now my favourite songs take me on nostalgic trips back to where I've come from and the tears fill my eyes, but now i wont hurt!sure it pains and stings my soul

but i wont hurt anymore, because with each tear, i live more and remember, hell there is a reason I'm still alive and all that pain is exactly why i LIVE!!!

the tears fill my eyes and i remember i'm human...with thought, feeling and living (SOUL!!!)

i'll be fine, i always am...in the end! (inspired by k'naan)
