Please Listen To My Advice
It may save you from pain and heartache
Hello my friend, I have some advice
Just as it was once given to me,
I only wish I had listened back then
But I knew best and refused to see.
It was given when life was a joyous place
Nothing wrong and everything just right,
Until a sharp prick pierced my disillusion
And the cover was ripped from my sight.
Forgive me, I don’t tell you to make you sad
I do not want to take away your happiness,
But just as I once refused to listen
I soon realised my foolishness.
Now is the time to hold on to your love
Do all you can to see that it grows,
Strengthen your love so it will last
When your thoughts and doubts do show.
The pain and agony slowly creeps on in
At first, numbness keeps it at bay,
Then when it arrives, it hits you hard
The heartbreak is here to stay.
