Teardrops

 Sit inside going insane,

Watching the rain stream down my window pane.

My eyes are hollow pools of salt,

The teardrops never coming to a halt.

A cloud of sorrow shrouding my sight,

My mind full of an endless blight,

I cradle my heart in my hands,

Watching it throb and die and break in front of my very eyes,

I sit until my home is flooded with all the tears I've cried.

My head goes underwater and my senses still shocked,

Cause I still see our eyes locked,

The way your lips used to taste so sweetly on mine,

How you crooned my name so gently

How you caressed me so softly with your golden touch

You once showed me heaven and then shoved me into hell

A slice of heaven, that's what you were,

But I guess you never loved me as much as you loved her.
