Suicidal Tears (teria's title contest)

by Jeffrey   Sep 4, 2006


Another pretty face crashes onto the scene
promiscuously acquiring young boy adoration
carries herself like a harlot at the age of thirteen
because "I love you", returns momentary elation
fooled everyone into thinking she was fine
with an artificial aura of arrogance and independence
inside there's a little girl begging for a chance to shine
in someone's heart with genuine love in attendance

the facade finally gave way that cloud-dulled day
when I stumbled upon her hope's horrific finale
trouble trusting the sorry sight my eyes portrayed
so I traversed deeper down the wooded alley
death washed your complexion in purple hues
found no reason to leave a suicide note
left to study the patterns woven in the bruise
that wrapped around your rope-stained throat
I struggle to imagine myself in your shoes
balancing on the creaky branch of that tree
heart racing while your mind reviews
feeling like a wh0re deserving of death
and believing everyone agrees

I can still remember after all these years
the raindrops rolling down your lifeless cheek
the heavens helped you cry your suicidal tears
now I only hope
they help you find the love you seek
