River of tears

I hold a river of tears

At the back of my eyes

I can't let them out

Because I'm scared I won't see

New things that flash in front of me

I can't take a break

Or else I might get caught up

In the raging waters 

I try so hard to hold up

Some days a few water drops

Sneak out of my eyes

Blinding my sight

Worsening my cries

I hold a river of tears

Built so big and so high

That one day they'll all slip

From behind my eyes
