Tears

I feel like ish....

Shhhh......

I feel like crying...

I want a tear to fall

Down my cheek and off my chin

And maybe just maybe

It will land on something strong enough to handle it

You wanna know what all is in my tears?

Backed up emotions that were never let out

Old memories from times that have past

The hate and anger from a couple months of never letting go

The broken heart that hasn't been put back together

The body that will never be the same

The ringing in the ears from all the shit you said

The bruised fists from all the brick walls

Times when I thought it couldn't get any worse and then it did

Lonely nights just wishing I had an ear or just a shoulder or an arm...

Memories of the good, the bad and the what was I thinking

All of this is in MY tears...

I've cried so much that it hurts to cry

My tears are tearing through my lids

Burning to get out

Of the eyes that have seen heartache

Even when they are shut

Then the dreams come alive...

Tears flowing down the river of my face

Falling into whatever place that can secrete back into my skin to do it all over again

Seems like the only safety net because

Nothing is strong enough to handle

My Tears....
