Tears of pain stream
Moistening my reddened cheeks
Cooling, soothing
Harsh to the touch
Completely unforgiving
It's over, done
The truth is known
And it is I that has become
The antagonist of this story
Shredding hope
Breaking hearts
Pushing to the edge
How can I even sit to write
Not sulk in misery
Loss has defeated you
My precious
A jewel thrown aside
For the burden caused
So continue these burning wells
Dripping their pain
Soaking into my skin
Allowing the truth to be known
Not only to the unsuspecting
But the guilty case as well
An unchanging truth
Splitting and destroying
All that is, was
And ever could be
