So did everyone who cried

On trying
On wishing
On hoping
On doing

Some got over
Others are still

A few are both

Sorrow without tears
Sobs that are dry
Solitude is a norm

I gave up on smiling
And I gave up on crying.

I gave up on feeling.
emptiness is defeat without any tears left.

And shall I rest in your arms
The Lord will descend down from the heavens
For shall I die and your presence will be naught
Then restless I will be for the rest of my death.
for the rest of me left.
Most people say
“You don’t know what you have till it’s gone”
That isn’t true
We know exactly what we have
We just never think it’ll leave
And then we try and make up for how we treated that thing we had
And most of the time it’s to late
I’ve never received a flower
Or even a rose
But I’m a guy
So it’s acceptable I suppose
No kisses
Or sweets
No treats
That signifies ones feelings for me
No token of ones love
But I have gotten
Disappointment
Watered with hate
Planted in betrayal
Fertilized with lies
And maintained by fakes
Roses are Red
But my roses are dead
And crumble beneath my feet

Does love make fools of us?
or loneliness?
Perhaps they hold hands
and skip around like two idiots
in puddles of tears
and sad mud
