*Tears*


The tears are running down my face.

One after another.

Faster and faster.

Is it possible to drown in them?

Is it all in my head?

Can i escape from everything?

Can I just run?

I just want to run until my feet bleed.

Until I fall to my knees.

Just let me be.

Don't ask for a hug.

Don't try to comfort me.

It doesn't help anything.

It just means that you'll keep your eye's on me.

Always checking if I want to slip away.

If I want to leave.

I'll just lie.

Tell you what you want to know.

Because the tears still fall.

And nothing will make them stop.

I'm just here to, at the very least, be heard without having people around me giving me sympathy. Don't get to caught about what my poems mean. I don't rhyme. I don't stick to a theme. I write when I need to get something off of my chest and that's it. I don't take the time to use a type of poetry so just deal with it. These are my stories and my life.
