Silent Tears

teardrop

I cried today in silence

to hide my pain from you

tried real hard to stop

as you demanded that I do

How did this ever get to be

when did I stop being me?

Time has made me feel so old

and passes quicker than I've been told

My chest hurt as I gasped for air

fought for breath which wasn't there

Tried to swallow but my throat was dry

wanted to scream but heard a sigh

Sometimes I can't believe it's real

this fucked up way I often feel

Reality sucks, this is true

as I hide my silent tears from you.

  • sorenbarrett

    A sad poem of attachment to one that seems not there for them. Touching
