Only Tears
April 13, 2017
A sign of sadness
When you are hurt
There's a deep pain
Inside
But on the outside,
It's only tears
People look,
People stare
They wonder
But they don't understand
It's only tears
They try to comfort
When you cry
But what they don't see?
It's only tears
"Perhaps," you think
"This is all a dream
Nothing really happened
"Perhaps
These are really tears of joy"
But then you are sucked
Into reality once again
No, it's not a dream
But only tears
