Crimson Tears

by Princess09   Mar 15, 2006


Tears that won't go away;
Tears of your biggest fears;
Fears of not being loved,
these are crimson tears.

When you're the little kid,
Who hides late at night,
From a drunken daddy
Who might put up a fight.

When you're the homosexual;
Who's family turned the other way,
With shame and disgust,
Who needs to be told it'll be OK.

When you're the one who cuts,
Because your mom left you alone,
Who wishes she would call
And checks every time you pass the phone.

When you're the kid that smokes,
To take away all the pain;
Of a thousand sharp knives,
Throwing your life down the drain.

You cry; Crimson tears.

Tears with meaning;
Of past years;
tears with emotion,
These are crimson tears.

When you're the one;
Who chose to drink and drive;
Killing your beloved,
Who wishes they were still alive.

When you're the one;
Who has a broken heat;
Because your best friend
riped it apart,

When you're reason,
They chose to stay;
Right before he pulled out a gun;
With your friends life you paid.

When you're the one;
Who lost a baby;
That wants to get them back,
But know its not a possibility

You cry; Crimson tears.

Tears that won't go away;
Tears of your biggest fears;
Fears of not being loved,
These are crimson tears.

Tears with meaning;
Of past years;
tears with emotion,
These are crimson tears.

    Some nice words that flowed smoothly together. Some great imagery. Well done. Not exactly great with some stanzas but it got a message across. Your last two stanzas ended on a strong note.
