My Heart Bleeds
My heart BLEEDS,
My heart bleeds for him,
My eyes watch and I see,
He tries to hide it,
But I see it.
He tries to wipe away the stain,
But I see it.
Sniffles or more,
Something that cannot be ignored,
Loss of weight,
Crypt keepers gate,
Eyes sunk in,
Cheeks so thin,
Still, he lies,
Still, he hides,
I find, but say nothing,
I look away because what is left to say,
He lies,
My heart cries,
I sit alone,
I cry in a low tone.
I see the effects,
No more than bone,
When will he stop?
When will he stop?
Nothing will make him stop.
My eyes still see.
My heart still bleeds.
