I can't seem to understand
How I have leaked so much tears
Like a rusty tap that is now forever ruined
Forever broken
Because one being
Decided to abandon it.
I don't want to be
Thrown away like I'm
Last weeks newspaper
But I can't seem to go
Five breathes without
Twenty
Salty
Tears
Racing down my face
One following another
As if this was some kind of game
As if I'm some kind of joke
That can be repeatedly used until
I bring no laughter
And no joy.
Before you, I believed
That I was so much more
than an over used joke
Or a useless rusted tap.
But recently I've caught myself
Lost in a tornado of thoughts
Getting the wind knocked out of my lungs
Only so water can fill them
When a tsunami of tears hits
The only thing I can do
Is lay there like a broken mess
In my hurricane of hurt.
