The Tears That Kill
I cannot let me feel
To feel is to hurt
Hope turns black with each shedding tears
What once felt excitement is only filled with dread
I cannot escape this prison
I made for myself
A key I made of love I will not let in
I will suffocate in this cage
Drowned by the tears that fill these walls
Its space consumed each passing night
Sweet bitter liquid
A black sea ready to consume
As my lungs fill with the sorrow
A plea for breath I'll take in final
Gone with it the last
Air to give me voice
Voice to hear my plea
