Riddle

Location

I will...suck you in, cause your eyes to well with tears like endlessly eternal waterfalls,

I will leave your heart with battered bruises, warped, and full of hopelessness;
I plague many in the world, no one day-dreamer are exempt from my down-pulling spell:
I roll you and revel you relishly, ridding you of every dripping urge to smile.
In these places I hide, hide away;
Nature is untouched by me, only those with a knowing heart shake my hand,
My mark is left in countless places, wether the trail of scars along your wrist:
Perhaps the strewn bottles lining your sanctuary, along with the heavy waft of alcohol trailing your tongue:
I strike mercifully, where there is pain, she is my bride.
In these places I hide, hide away;
Wether yesterday or today,
In my world, the only concept is of being a stray.
And with my sincerest sincerity and heartlessness of hearts, know that I am here to stay.
 
 
What Am I?
