Tears of blood

Sometimes the pain is too much,

it over takes my soul,

an emptiness in my heart,

from always being alone,

the tears I fight back,

now stream down my face,

hot against my flesh,

but I wipe away their trace,

sometimes it hurts so bad,

I just want to end it all,

have my pain run as blood,

as my tears still fall,

this emptiness it slithers,

through my veins like a snake,

consuming my emotions,

with every breath I take,

I need to put out the fire,

and clear the clouds of gray,

wipe away the tears of blood,

and remember a happier day.
