The Tears That Fall Poem by April Jonees

Keeper of my heart,
Why do you not understand?
Your voice is what pains,
My heart as it bleeds,
Bit by bit without a trace,
It leaves your embrace,
Tears stain my eyes,
While inside part of me dies,
But...I'll still smile,
Even if for a while,
Outside that smile will mask me,
But I cry really,
Every word you say,
Will puncture my heart deeper,
When you say my name,
Try and remember,
The smiles I show you are...
The tears that fall.
