Red Tears

I lost everything in the end
there was nothing left
I was lost in the darkness
only you were with me

On that sad day
Gentle drops of rain fell
And washed away the blood of your wounds

The red tears you shed
Gave me the only emotion I ever had
For the first time in my life
I understood the pain you suffered

I don’t even know whether you survived
But the red tears that you cried
Were left behind
As you limped away

I left with tears in my eyes
I had no choice
But to leave you behind

Although you could never cry
I saw your red tears
Your suffering made me
The person I am today

Now that you are gone
I’m sorry that I didn't value your existence
Thank you for your kindness

The red tears you shed
Gave me the only emotion I ever had
For the first time in my life
I understood the pain you suffered
Although you could never cry
I saw your red tears
Your suffering made me
The person I am today
