Unseen Tears

Tears fall like the rain

'Cause they need to be let out.

But what about the tears

No one knows about?



Those are the ones we don't share

But, to ourselves, keep;

The tears that are locked up

Inside somewhere deep.



These tears hurt ten times more

Than the ones we see.

They may not mean anything to you,

But they are slowly killing me.



These unseen tears are the cracks

That are destroying my fragile heart.

They were small at first but now are so big

That each day they chip off a part.



Where is the glue to put the pieces back together?

I will pay whatever the cost.

Is there any detective smart enough

To find the parts that are lost?



Or will I forever be broken,

Unable to fix or mend

These cracks in my heart?

Will I stay this way til the end?



Will the healer ever come my way,

The only one that can save me?

Or will these tears forever remain

The ones nobody can see?
