Crystal Tears of Insanity

Tears come ever so slowly
sating my pain in their wake
Upon this night they are falling
my heart fully crushed from the break
Dreams, tattered, tonight now crumble
beneath the weight of the pain
Ever so slowly they tumble
inside of my soul once again.

Hope has gone into hiding
faith lost among tears left to cry
My heart is a vessel residing
among all the wreckage inside.
Crashing upon all the thunder
the ocean of tears come to flood
Pulling my mind ever under
voiding my life of laughter and love.

A prison for all of the aching
inside of my soul there to see
Tarnished, bruised, and forsaking
catch and hold tightly to my sanity.
Ripping through vessels that tarry
inside of my mind and my heart
On wings of death they are carried
shattered pieces of love torn apart.

No place found among all the heartache
no memories cling to the mind
No warmth of a thought in the face
of the love that has fallen behind
Vacant and sated by teardrops
inside of my heart they now churn
Forever silent and faded
memories that are tattered and burnt.

Darkness upon my heart lingers
now calmly caressing my mind
The hands of the clock still ticking
taking away all thoughts left inside.
Slowly I find myself drifting
among all the ashes I see
Demons bound now they are shifting
as I try to hold on to reality.

No heart fills with light come the morning
just emptiness floods in the soul
A darkness has captured the dawning
Leaving me broken and cold
Now vacant eyes stare in the distance
no longer do I feel the pain
Forever subdued of resistance
lost in the plague of insanity's claim
