Cry

Saline water
So pure, yet unclean
Dripping from the edge of my face
Running through the bone of my cheek
Saline water, stubborn and mean

She lightly caresses my nose
Slyly runs her body across my cheekbone
She will not leave me
Even though I am a carcass, whole.

I wonder why. She comes every night.
I can't fathom the reason
Why doesn't she scram! Just GO!

Saline Water, you reveal my secrets, you whore.
People who once trusted my rancid smile
No curiously cross-question, to know something more.

When I was young, I used you as a bait.
HAHA! But look at my tragedy, consider this as my fate
Now that I am done with you,
I have no mama to wipe the dew

You are set out to take vengeance.
By making your way past everyday.
Saline Water, why can't you be contained?
You leave me dry, you suck the energy out of my life.

I cry in silence. I have no audience to show.
Saline Water, you've killed many I love,
I should make sure you leave my maa alone
