I
have water
Falling down
my cheeks. Thunderstorm
In my eyes. Pain, hurt, love, loss
pour out of me. Like tidal waves crashing
emotions streaming. People, places, voices
in the salty river of anguish. The words running over
and over in my head. Sitting in the corner all wrapped up.
Just letting the pain flow. Thinking to myself, how could they
Do that? Stab me in the back, tear me down. Stripped to
Nothing. Leave me here to cry, feel like falling down into a
Coma not to wake up, because it’s not worth it. But I need
To be tough, be strong. Have to wipe the tears away
Pull myself through it, show them I can’t be broken
Down that easy. Pull the knife out, heal the
Wounds and finally the eyes are dry
