Tears

You tell me not to cry
That tears don't suit my pretty face;
But do you know what I cry?

Each drop is heavy with
The weight of your lies;
Each drop rolling off
From your fake promises;
Each drop escaping from
Your pretence care.

I claim my freedom
Slowly but steadily while
Each drop slips away
Freeing me from your bondage...
