Flames of Fires Fade

Drowning in Tears

I'm crying all these tears away

And I can't help but let this liquid seep

Deep inside my soul to fill the void

All the way to the depths of my core

Where there was nothing more

But an empty shell

Waiting to be inhabited

With something more than nothing

And nothing more than anything else

How can nothing feel like everything

When it's only a simple part

That never feels whole

Even though I try so desperately to mend

All these pieces that don't have a place

I don't want these tears 

That drown me in my sadness

And suffocate me with all the worries

That I forgot I had 

But resurfaced with the waves of depression

Where is the cleanse

That I'm trying so hard to find

To purify and wash away the wrongs

That were written in the sands of time

But somehow these tears won't subside

No mater how much I try to hide

You can't escape the flood 

Or the changing tide

That will eventually sweep you away
