Tears Of Red

If I could only speak again
Of the love and of the pain
Of the dreams you stole from me
Of the times you just couldn't see

You left me there to cry my tears
You left me drowning in my fears
You couldn't help but walk away
You didn't have the guts to stay

How dare you think that I'm alright
The tears once more I'm trying to fight
Com come I'm the only one
That from your grasp i can not run?

To hold it firm in my hand
The fears i can no longer stand
To pierce the skin and feel no pain
I'll show them that I'm not insane!

The feelings that i hold inside
I can't out run i can not hide
I feel no hate i feel no shame
No! It will never be the same!

Tears of the wrist; cold and red
Wash away the voices in my head
Why is it that only i can see
That fear and pain are controlling me

Why don't you believe me when i say
'I don't wanna talk! Now go away!'
I want to be alone in here
I'm trying to make my feelings clear

If only someone else could know
How it feels to be this low
No song, no lecture or no tale
Could tell you why i look so pale

But i won't let this overpower me
From your grasp I'm breaking free
To rid the demons in my head
To cry no more tears of red

I want this all to go away
I'm hoping for another day
To be alive and be with you
Your friendship's the thing that got me through

    What a wonderful poem! I really love it. Excellent piece of work. I can feel the power, the strength, the courage, yet the hopelessness. Very well done. It's breath taking. Sorry, I don't know what else to say, I'm speechless. Keep up the good work, and take care -xxx- =)

    This is vere beautiful! This could have been a poem right out of my heart. It reminds me of a poem I wrote called "stand up tonight" It's kind of about the same. The same feelings, the same pain, Very beautiful, well done, keep up the good work, lots of love!
