Red Tears

Fresh tears of blood rolling down my cheeks,

my pain hurts so much, it's hurting me

physically. When I try to smile, my lips

tremble with fear, I'm enclosed in

darkness, with no love, and I cry blood of

tears. I'm shivering in a corner, an ice

cold breeze of hatred flying past, I want to

hold on longer, please God, let it last. In

the corner of my eye, I see a little dove,

I look over at it, and my heart fills

with love. I feel my strength come back

into my body, this is all I want, and it's

everything that my empty heart has been

longing. My blood stained shirt, my hands

beaten by work, black spots under my eyes,

this little dove has saved my life. It

spreads its wings, and flies to my arm; its

small beady eyes, so gentle and warm. I

never knew that something could share such

love, God sent my my angel from up above.
