Tears stream down my weary face.
Thoughts of you, thoughts of us.
Memories haunt me in my dreams.

Outstretched arms... Crucified. Banished,
fall forward into shattered moments.
No resistance. No hesitance.

My blood drains. I watch it pool.
droplets become rivers.
Flow onward to living flesh.

Shallow breath. Heart beats slower.
Strain to see through hazy room.
Body is numb. The heart is on fire.

One last breath. Darkness. Noise.
I wake up gasping. It's another day.
Bury my head and cry.

Straighten covers. Wipe away tears.
Off to work, It's another day.
Sometimes tears are a sign of weakness...
Sometimes tears are a sign of strength...
Day three and I'm still alive.

The lady knows pain. Now that breaks my heart.
