Tears I cried, a silent echo in the night.
Whispers of pain, stories locked away.
I had been holding on for too long,
Each tear a reminder of battles fought in silence.
The ending was overwhelming,
Drowning in a sea of emotions, where shadows loomed large.
It was the ugly cry, the one where my chest hurt,
Breath hitching, a desperate plea for release from the weight.
Eyes red, too much pressure in my mind,
Thoughts racing, a whirlwind of doubt and despair.
It was the silent cry; I no longer slept,
Restless nights consumed by the weight of unspoken fears.
Memories of mistakes played over and over again,
Haunting reminders that refused to fade into the past.
These tears I cried,
Were the words I couldn't speak, the pain I couldn't share.
These tears I cried,
Flowed like a river, carving paths through my heart.
The tears I cried,
Marked the journey of healing, a testament to my strength.
The tears I cried,
Were the seeds of resilience, ready to bloom anew.
