Tears

by nora   Dec 3, 2006


Tears of blood stain my face,
A silent witness to my disgrace,
Unknown testimony of a hearts mistake
In loving something so unattainable

Tears of ice course down my lips
Cold as the steel that protects the weak
Unbeknown the silence seeks,
Those, for whom the silence weeps,
Those silent tears of ice

Tears of fire down cheeks of red,
Anger clears a mistaken head,
Reasons unknown, lies foretold,
Dreams left to die in bed

Dry as a salt lake, eyes are sore,
The only witness to a massacre,
Tears of blood, ice and fire,
All stream from one desire,
One want, one hate, one need,
To love, to hold, to bleed.
