Tears
The tears I cry
don't come from my eyes,
they all backfire
and flow back into my mind.
The ones that do slip from within
they don't roll down my skin,
they land on a page
since they fall straight from my pen.
I cry these tears when no one's around,
if I don't write them down,
they'll flood up my head
and I'm scared that I'll drown
