Into the night the spirit stumbles
out of the ears the sound departs
into oblivion goes the being
teardrops of a broken heart.
...
I was broken,
I tried so hard to fix myself
but the mends kept slipping
so I fixed them again.
...
How many tears can bleed from one eye?
I cant seem to count them,
as hard as I try.
How many years will it take them to dry?
...
Did you forget you loved me as you looked into her eyes?
Did your heart not feel me dying as you felt so alive?
Could my soul not lure you as you kissed her sweet red lips?
...
Why are you crying Mother
while the sun shines bright in the sky?
Why is your face aglowing
with the tears that have bled from your eyes?
...
Its time to stop crying, the people say.
Its time to close the door.
But I cried again this morning
and now i'm crying some more.
...
I came to say my last farewells at the hospital today
My last remaining memory of a neverending day.
They thought of me as crazy as I fingered through your rags
as I cried on tattered slippers, old worn clothes in plastic bags.
...
Cherish this heart of mine as I place her hesitantly into your care,
for she does not come easy.
Be gentle with her or you may rip her tender skin
and she shall weep a mirriade of soft tears into the palm of your hand.
...
Keeper of my heart i call for you now,
why are you not by my side?
...
