Eyes burned with tears unshed,
Stubbornness won't let it fall.
It hurts from what it sees,
And blinded by what it saw.

Heartaches glisten its lashes,
Thousands of tears kept at bay.
Saw all the painful scenes,
But no strength to look away.

The sorrows of yesterday,
Reflected brightly in its shine.
Its innocence and loneliness,
Became one as it entwine.

It never thought the pain,
It felt would ever fall.
Until the heart cried,
And broke its only wall.

Blinking it away,
A single tear rolled down.
Hitting the heart at home,
Slowly it begins to drown.

Pitter pattering of the eyes,
Crying for a dying heart.
Posture broken down,
Emotionally torn apart.
