Tears
There were tears I couldn't shed
Because I don't deserve to cry
I never let them fall
Because I know all of my crimes
I never knew the taste of tears
When they drip from the eyes
But bitterness waters my heart
When they overflow inside
The choking feeling in my throat
When tears threat to depart
I let the feeling burn my chest
Without tears oozing out
I knew that torture's not enough
To pay for all my faults
So shedding tears, I wouldn't dare
I don't deserve to cry
And though I don't deserve to live
I don't dare take my own life
As punishment, I shed no tears
And only let them burst inside.
