Tears

by Erin Donohoe   Sep 8, 2008


How many tears must I cry
For the darkness to pass by
Will I ever wake from this pain filled state
Is it my own fate
That alone I should wait

Now I hold my tears inside
Afraid to even cry
Lost in all the lies
Blinding myself from my own eyes

I let the tears roll down my cheeks
Forming puddles at my feet
I pull the blade across my wrist
As I watch the blood pour into my fist

My death with set me free
No longer any mystery
The tears will stop
When I no longer drop

Finally it is my time to say goodbye
For no one is left to wonder why?
Before I close my eyes
I look to the skies
And sing my final lullabies...
