Tears Of Hope

Tears blindly running
Down your face
Heart aching with uncontrollable sadness
Happiness no longer has space

Sores scarring you forever
Bleeding with blood so red
Confusing whirling thoughts
Burning through your head

Blurry memories crash
Through your mind
Lovely heart-warming thoughts
Are now far behind

To fight back the tears
We must be armed to the bone
But I know that we cannot
Do this alone
