Tears

Why must I
Shed these tears
They break away,
Break away from me
Why cant I 
Loudly scream,
Im so silent,
So serene

I wish I could just
Break away from me
I wish this pain would
Fly away from me
I want no more tears
No more
No more
No more tears

Why can't you 
Look in the mirror
Look at you
Look at yourself
Why must you
Lie like this to me
Look me in the eye
Look me straight in the eye

I wish I could just
Break away from me
I wish this pain would
Fly away from me
I want no more tears 
No more 
No more
No more tears

If you could see me as I am
You would Love me
If you could see yourself as you are
You would understand why
Understand why I Love you

I Love you
I Love you
I Love you

And no I wont .  .  .

       STOP!
