Ugly Tears

Ever cried so hard you could not breathe, 
Felt like someone was grasping onto your throat.
Every time you let out a yelp, 
You couldn’t help but to choke…
Tears streaming down your face as if the rain couldn’t stop beating down on your round cheeks… 
You ever had to sleep on a Pillow drenched with tears?
Everything I feared, 
Came true..
There is no more I miss yous & no more fake reasons to see me.. 
That ship has sailed & so has my dreams of us ever becoming one.
That ship went streaming down on my river of tears. 
Ever cried so hard you think the person who hurt you most would walk right through the door. 
They aren’t coming back baby girl..  
You remind yourself of that constantly...

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
