These saline little drops
Are a burden to bear.
Wish I could take it all back...
But the past, I can't repair.

These molten memories
Burned forever in my mind
Of moments high and low
Of all that's left behind.

This shining water of guilt
Flowing down in a creek,
Out my burning eyes,
Down my scratched cheek.

They flowed of joy once
Now they flow of sorrow.
I have myself to blame,
That we lost our tomorrow.

These heavy tears are
Weighing down my smile,
Molding it into a frown...
Leaving a trail vile.

Among them are a few unshed...
That I choose to retain.
The strongest reminder of you,
As this bitter-sweet pain.
