Tears

My pillow is soaked

From the tears that I shed.

Late at night

My thoughts and fears,

Eat away at me.

Causing me grief,

Beyond belief.

I cry so hard

That I rock the bed.

These sobs and screams

Stuck in my throat.

Begging to be released.

Begging to be acknowledged.

I cry so hard that I can’t breathe.

The memories of a lost childhood

Come flooding back to me.

Memories of the pain  and hurt

Come flooding back to me.

Memories I wish I could erase

From all space and time.

GOD, JUST TAKE THIS OUT OF MY MIND!

My pillow is soaked

From the tears that I shed.

I can’t stop the throbbing in my head.

The skipping of my heart.

The agony is ripping me apart.

How can I fall asleep now?

With my pillow soaked and this pounding in my head?
