your head turns when my tears drop

By: jamie l olsen

you sit back and watch me cry,
knowing the pain i am in.
i'm unable to show emotion
until the endless tears begin.

an emptiness, so deep inside,
empowers my hopes and dreams.
everything i thought i knew
is nothing... as it seems.

a piece of me is dying
and lying on the floor.
the dreams i had are over
and can only be no more.

if saddness shone like beauty,
i'd be brighter than the sun,
gazed upon by wondering eyes
and loved by everyone.
