Cry

A river of tears flows down my cheek
And at this point it looks like there's no stopping it.
It's not because of you, really, it's not, I promise.
The stress has just become too much,
I couldn't hold it in any longer.
Anger, pity, hate, fury
All of this - and no, I swear, you're not the reason.
Sure, you broke my heart,
And sure it hurt me,
But trust me,
I'd never cry over you.
You're "just some boy."
Of course I wasn't in love,
I'm "too young to know what love is."
No.
I'm not.
I was in love
With you.
But you not with me,
I didn't want to think that,
To know that, because it hurt.
And now here I am,
The mist of midmorning resting on my cheeks,
An ocean invading my eyes,
A storm clouding my sight,
And now I can't see the flaws of your perfect face,
But it's easy to see through your lies.
I know who you are now;
You're not the one I need.
You were never,
But still, I cry.
