Sad Dizain

Cannot cry, tears don't know which way to go
they are caught in an emotional maze
bottled up tears, have formed a wall of woe
The nose may run, but the eyes simply glaze
Such repressed sorrow is more than a phase
Crystallized dam has been growing for years
Fortified fortress of blood, pus and fears
Feelings that are deemed way over the top
Afraid to release this floodgate of tears
Once the crying starts it may never stop
