Even Tears Run Dry
She sits in the room, not making a sound
She's sorting all the chaos that is entrapped in her mind
Lots of memories come flooding back
Like a levy that has broken
From years of neglect
It spills over slowly
Sending tears down her cheeks
Landing in her hands
They form there, a puddle of regret
Of all of the things she could have, but didn't
What brought her here to this very moment
Only time and understanding within herself can say
She only knows in her heart, she can't continue this way
It has to get easier
This anguish that she feels
For now she'll just continue
To find peace through her tears
They are her salvation
Her way to a new life
One day soon she knows
They to will run dry
