Her eyes finally had enough
Tears of black ran down her cheek
Leaving lines short and sweet
No longer did she give an attempt
To stop the tears, she was content
It was ok, for once, to feel such sadness
Never had I seen such gladness
To be crying tears like coal
But to have these feelings was like gold
In silence they fell
Without a whimper to tell
In silence they dwell
Leaving her skin so pale
Alone those black tears rolled
And this went on till it grew cold
Then what was once black turned red
As tears of scarlet flowed down like led
I had no idea it was possible
For her it seemed impossible
But I guess I wasn’t aware
Of the blood that came from there
The blood that ran like tears
It was worse than I feared.
