What you think is, Is never is what it is
You see an eye that eternally cries,
I see a cage where I live a lie,
I try to melt my fear, worry, and depression,
But you keep on drying the melt,
These are not tears, these are the products of internal war,
A war that I've won and on my way,
Don't try to wipe my endless tears,
Because they are my will and also my way,
To escape my self torture, hate and things that can't be unseen.

-Bugu

I thought I could make you forget him

So everynight I sang you songs,read you poems as I wiped your tears
But deep inside your eyes I could see the infliction he left on you

Every night I cleaned the unhealed wounds he marked on you
Knowing well the scars would be like tattoos

I thought I'd be your remedy but now I'm loosing hope
You're never moving on

-Poetic_Whispers

I wiped your tears but they kept flowing
Your well never running dry
I wiped your tears
To heal your battle wounds
But they were too deep
I was incapable
I was unable to
For you barricaded yourself inside
And forgot
Forgot about everyone else
And we who cared about you
Began to wail as well
But hid it
For you pain is mine
And it hurts me
When you lock yourself in
And I can't draw you out
My kisses no longer heal you
My touch no longer calms you
My sight doesn't excite you
My love does not exist to you
For to you all that exists is pain
Pain which has made you
Build walls
And lock me out
The world and everyone
But I won't give up
I will wipe your tears
Till tour ready to breathe
Ready to live
To live my love
As though all were well

-Lilian_Poet

Thought you could see
This genuine sacrifice
The heartfelt love
Just meant for you
To swim through
But what was on your mind?
Would you rewind
Your thoughts
Did you mean it
When you said you loved me too
I gave my all
With all due respect
You gave your worst
To you I was trash
I tried to hold on
Sought to share
You didn't care
I moved on
Today gather your broken pieces
And leave me in peace
