Tears

Falling, Falling,

Falling, Falling,

Falling, Falling,

Falling, Falling…

Me and the tears

From Anger

From Pain

From Guilt

From Shame

Lonely

Smiling

But I’m crying

Laughing

But I’m dying

Overwhelmed at every sound

Like a migraine or a concussion

Stomach hurts with aches and chills

Like I’m sick or something

Stabbing

Biting

Cutting

Blinding

Chopping

Binding

Sharp and

Bleeding

Is my heart even beating?

They tell me I can depend on them

They tell me they’ll be there

But…

I don’t want you to feel like I do

I don’t want to overwhelm you

I don’t want to show you my hurt

Do I mistrust you too?

My heart longs for you

But if I had you

I’d hurt you

You

You who helped me… Just by being you

You who patched me up… Just by being you

You who tended to my breaking heart… Just by being you

Thank You

Thank You

Thank You

I don’t know what I’d do without you

I probably wouldn’t be here

Gone

But even with your hand guiding me,

Your spirit in my heart and mind,

I am still lost.

Lost in thought

Lost in emotion

Lost in pain

Lost in the motions

Lost in this house,

This place I call home

Lost in my heart,

Where I feel alone.

Is there anyone who will wipe my tears away?
