Black Rivers

I try to just let it out
Cry until my tears run dry
Hoping they would finally flow empty

I try to hide my pain
Smile until the bright star goes down
Then I break
I shatter into a thousand pieces
With no body around
The puddles in my eyes turn to rivers
They flow hard and never seem to let up
This pain I cannot bear
Is forcing me to break once more
Harder, into a million pieces this time

Forcing me back into the shadows of my soul
Deeper and deeper I hide
I grow silent with every passing moment

Soon I am drowning
Drowning in rivers flowing hastily from my eyes
This pain has yet to subside

I am trapped
Chocking in this ocean
These tears will forever flow
Never to evaporate nor dry up

This pain is forever mine
These tears are forever here
My eyes are forever stained
