Trail of Tears

Follow my trail of tears and you will find the scattered pieces of my broken mind I seem to have lost my grip on reality and let go of the good part inside of me My trail of tears leads to a place that is hollow Filled with pain, emptiness and sorrow The bitter cold will freeze your entire body to the core And make your heart filled of rage never felt before The tears I have spent so many nights crying Are nothing compared to the eternally long days I have spent lying About who I am and what I believe There is no good dream left to achieve The trail my tears leave is full of hurt That I cannot envison a time when there weren't Any tears stinging my eyes and staining my face Longing lovingly for the purest, warmest embrace My tears are falling fast and free Taht I now know I can never be Anything of significance to anyone I am a book that has been read, I am done
