Tears of Ink
August 2, 2012
Let my shame be washed down a stream.
May my courage be redeamed.
My hope will be revived.
My life will once again thrive.
But for now I have a secret to hide.
I've locked it up deep inside.
I am a monster without a heart.
I am a person with no place to start.
My tears flow down the drain.
There's nothing left to gain.
My blood drips to the ground.
Reminding me of the happiness I never found.
So now my ink is tears.
To remind me of all my fears.
I am a monster without a heart.
I am a person with no place to start.
