Tears
Tears fall down your cheeks,
They slide from them and fall to the floor.
Creating a small pool at your feet.
What caused these tears?
Was it all the pain you feel?
No you deal with that a different way.
You deal with the pain by drawing little red lines.
The tears were caused by someone close to you.
He feeds you the words he thinks you want to hear.
The words that are sweet like honey.
But you no longer have a sweet tooth.
The words taste like bitter lemons to your painted on smiles.
They slide from them and fall to the floor.
Creating a small pool at your feet.
What caused these tears?
Was it all the pain you feel?
No you deal with that a different way.
You deal with the pain by drawing little red lines.
The tears were caused by someone close to you.
He feeds you the words he thinks you want to hear.
The words that are sweet like honey.
But you no longer have a sweet tooth.
The words taste like bitter lemons to your painted on smiles.
