Somehow
Show
My tears matter
When
I’m in a corner
Feeling defenseless
Like right now
Today
This hour
In every way
The enemy says
Ha
–
Building a tower of pain
Beating my eyes until they are shut
And you know one of my fears
Is utter rejection
Being cut off
Without any chance of mercy
Void of grace
–
Somehow
Slip a note
A tissue
For my river
Tear river
I’m flopping on the surface
Dying and I’m scared
Abandoned
You are the only one left
I don’t want myself
–
Tell me
If you will
My tears
MATTER
Say it again
You CARE
Because I’m getting cold
Frost in veins
Falling asleep
Tears frozen inside.
