Makeup all done
Ready for the day
Anxiety builds
As we are on our way

Nothing goes right
Everything’s crumbling
Mascara is running
As I cry black tears

These droplets of black tears
Stream down my face
As I cry all my makeup away

This beautiful time
It so should have been
Celebrating our love
Relaxing and playing with sun

Now I’m left drowning in my own puddles of black tears
Just for tonight because we have so many more years (to celebrate)
Ever have one of those days where nothing went your way? Crying your eyes out and painting your face with those black tears.
