Notice a the difference
Between sadness and agony.
When you are sad,
The tears seem to come
From the back of your eyes.
They prick the corners
And trickle down your cheek
Just for the sake of releasing
The bad.
But when you are in agony
Alone in the dark
With no one to call upon
No on to turn to
Tears come from your chest.
They work their way up your throat
And force their way out of your eyes
Flooding forward, unyielding
Because your heart has broken open
And the flood of raw emotion
Cannot be stopped by just anything
By just anyone.
And the only one who can fix you
Broke you to begin with.
