Teardrop
I weep in empty cuboidal spaces
corners of dim bathroom stalls
I slip away from the fascade every millisecond
my thoughts revert back to you
Everyone knows our story
They console my agitated, shaking,
screaming soul
they remind me of the warnings I overlooked
It was a mistake, falling for you
But I don't seek sympathy, if it were to me,
I'd redo this same plot over and over
every morning you'll break my heart
every night, I'll let you hold me again
and no word we'd say would matter
No tears would separate me from you,
No lies, no truth will crush my heart
Watch my eyes empty warmth
Red hue taints my skin
Watch the world blur
as another tear utters your name...
