When Tears No Longer Fall

When Tears No Longer Fall

I try to cry but the tears just will not fall

I want to talk to you but you no longer call

When someone hurts you it hurts me worse

My eyes are now like a deserted thirst

I still feel the pain deep inside of my heart

Though I know you think of me not when we are apart

I wait by my phone but I never from you get a text

I wait for you to come to me but I am never next

My eyes burn like the sand on the desert floor

Just when I think I do not want to cry I want to more

Like two ships destined to sail in different directions

Hidden beneath the deep buried conflicting affections

Where water never falls no matter how hard they try

I am awash in tears of a broken heart that cannot cry
