Tears

by HighPerfection   Mar 8, 2006


I look into his eyes
They just look down
No expression
Nothing
The gateway to his past is closed
He wont let me even look
His mother is dying
He's already contemplating suicide
But he doesn’t know that I know
He thinks he's alone
But I'm right here holding his hand
Not letting go never planning to
I can feel him slipping away
His spirit is already dieing slowly
I pull him close
Just one more desperate try for life
Telling him please to don't let go
And for the first time in a long time
I cried for someone else's pain
And he cried because he hates to see me cry
I look again at his eyes
Through the tears
I see the hate the pain the fear
Pour from his eyes
Forever leaving a print in my soul
