i cried today
the first time in many years
it built up to a climax in me, in my being
and i could not hold them back anymore
i cried for all the loss and pain
and remembered why someone once wanted me
i cried for all the lives lost, and my own demise
i cried for the times i could not, as i had held this all in
i cried till i couldn't breathe anymore and my eyes were blood red, and my nose blocked
i cried, knowing it was lost and i never even tried to find it
i just lay there, sobbing in my own guilt and tears all alone but strangely comforted that no one could hear me.
