Your words are lies,
I can't see through.
My eyes they dry,
Where tears once grew.

A lotus on my cheek,
Blossoms from salt water.
Knowing you'll start a leak,
With words that slaughter.

The flower of loneliness
To show the loss.
Hope turned weakness,
And you are the cause.
The lotus has many meanings. In China and Buddhism it can mean to rise out of your suffering. It can also symbolizes abandonment or loneliness.
