Tears, tears run down my cheaks <br />My legs go numb and I grow weak; <br />My heart and my soul cry out in pain <br />As i suffer and sufficate with the stress I gain; <br />I cry and cry in search from some relief <br />The blood doesn't help, so I cry with mor grief; <br />My life can not end, I have too much to loose <br />But I need some help, so what do I choose; <br />I need and I want this pain to go away <br />Like a 'drug', a relief, to help me through the day; <br />But that is wrong, I can't do this anymore <br />Why would I do this? And I fall to the floor; <br />My acid tears burn through the ground <br />Then I look up to what i found; <br />Maybe a light to brighten my day <br />Or maybe a light to end all my pain; <br />Either way it has made me smile <br />So I know I'm going to live another while.<br /><br />Miranda DeNooyer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/acid-tears-and-hope/
