They shout words,

my vision blurs.

I need to hold it in.

Don't let them kick your shin.

I fall to the floor,

I don't know if I can take anymore.

Words stab me,

My thoughts are locked.

You'll never find the key.

One more kick,

two more punches.

A lone tear escapes,

all I can make out are blurry shapes.

It was enough to open the flood

gates.

These tears are the ones everyone hates.

I'm not strong,

I won't last long.

I'll drown,

I won't frown.

So many tears,

Unwanted water.
