bleed
i bleed tears.
The crimson drops
stain the soft tissue.
Little by little–
With every drop
serving to express
the pain, the frustration
but never to cease it.
i bleed tears.
Tears i could never
shed through my eyes;
eyes of sorrow
eyes of hurt
and disappointment
but apathy.
but indifference.
i bleed tears.
When no mouth
dares to speak
without shame.
When the silence
sinks in deeper
blurry and weak,
into the troubled soul.
i bleed tears.
For you i bleed tears.
I cut my own flesh
to bleed.
For you I feel.
For you I live.
For you I bleed.
