Shedding Tears

By a lachrymist

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Betrayed by hope and wanting, I lay here broken hearted and shedding tears. Moans of sorrow cross my lips, I cradle with my warm embrace. Shedding tears and bleeding here. Eyes wide shut from broken thoughts, desires of wanting have broken me. Wanting of silence kills me. Knees held tight and shedding tears, the stale air reaches me, but I hide from her. Warmth surrounds me, with the cold only to recur. silently killing me with thoughts so I lay wounded and bound tight yet you stay, keeping me doused with misery and I'm shedding tears and pissing blood. expecting something from nothing so I lay hoping for a bit of nothing for all you see is my shadow blind to the fact of me. shedding tears and wanting you/something.
