Tears

alone now
no one cares
no one
emptiness
it burns inside me
swells in my throat and spits tears
tears that bleed black out of my eyes
my heart
you left me 
left me with nothing
nothing but these tears
your gift
silent tears
they run in poison rivlets down my cheek
burning my flesh
and crippling my mind
you dont love me
