An Ocean of Tears

I cried this for you,
This salt ridden water,
That spills down the stairs
And out into the town,
That flows through the streets,
And drowns all the creatures
That so many cherish.

I cried this for you,
For the words that you spoke,
And the times when you laughed
At the expense of my soul.
And now in my suffering,
I cry you an ocean,
Deep enough for you
To swim in,
Deep enough for us
Both to drown in.

So here is your ocean,
Of tears cried in vain.
You'd best heed my advice
And hold your breath.
