Aftermath

There are never tears,

Not in public at least,

But my eyes feel dry,

As if I've drained them,

Of all the tears,

That build up inside,

My mind,

My heart

Sometimes it seems,

That music solves everything,

Whether it be classical,

Sweet and soft and beautiful,

So different than me

Or killer 'screamo',

Abrasive but true,

Emotions shining through,

It's poetry,

That some just don't hear

The pounding of drums,

Beating to my heart,

My anger and fury,

But then it slows a bit,

As do my boiling thoughts,

And I am tired and weak,

So small in this huge world,

So useless,

So nothing

I sigh,

A breath I have not yet taken,

But I feel at peace,

Relieved,

But not yet strong enough,

To carry on this war

I shall not forget.
