Where Tears And Darkness Meet Poem by Josephine Adrian

A single tear dribbles down my face,
It's the middle of the night.
This happens often.
But it's out of sight.

Out of sight,
Out of mind.
Another nightmare,
Sleep I try to find.

Two tears,
A perfect pair,
More people in the house,
But they're unaware.

That I have dreams,
And they scare me a lot.
Memories of the sad times.
I wish I had fought.

Fought to be happy,
Fought to be glad,
Fought for the memories,
I could've had.

But instead I was silent.
I was horrified;
Too shocked to do anything,
I could've cried.

Cried for help,
Cried for my dad,
Cried to be heard,
I wanted to so bad.

Tonight tears and darkness met,
In the corner of my eye.
Forget these moments?
I will try.
