The Tears Wont Stop
I try to fight back the tears
They keep coming
They keep pouring
I throw my head back
What a joke!
They don’t stop
They keep flowing
They need to stop!
Come on…please!
I need to stop crying
I try to feign a smile
But that doesn’t help
The dam burst
The tears poured
Now I can’t stop them
This can’t continue!
Someone help me!
Anybody!
I should have control!
I must stop this!
The tears keep flowing
Why?!
I try to forget your name
The memories we shared
The thought of you being gone
The pain
The memories of seeing you take your last breath
You struggling for life
You on the hospital bed
The pain!
Oh!
I try!
I’m trying!
Lord help me!
The tears keep coming
The pain of loss
The death of a loved one
The pain that tears my heart apart
The pain I feel
You are gone!
Breath gone!
You gone!
The tears won’t stop
