Cry
The skin falls from my bones
And I cry in pain
But not in physical pain
It's the pain of life for which I cry.
The tears slide down my cheeks,
So that they can drip on my shirt.
They leave stains on my skin
Of red darker than night.
But then you appear
You tell me you love me
And for a moment I believe you.
And until the moment passes
I feel safe
And warm.
Then the moment is gone,
And I'm cold once again.
I sniff my nose in the most
Un lady like way possible,
Like a child on their first day of kindergarten,
But they just have to wait half a day
Until they can feel safe again.
I have to wait forever
For you to appear.
But I know that you won't.
That you're too busy with your life to worry about me taking mine.
So this time your not here
To stop my tears of blood
And they run down my face
Leaving behind them trails of destruction
And in their wake
My soul will walk.
