Rippling,
Reflecting my reddish eyes,
The puddle grows with each passing tear
My eyes unfocus,
The shocking pain spreading across my body,
Bringing old memories of simpler times,
People lost along the path,
Including myself
Sinking to the ground,
My black tie floats on the puddle
I watch my one true friend drive past,
Knowing she’s crying in there,
And wishing I could be there for her
But all I am is one of those tears,
Dripping,
Splattering,
Splashing on the surface
But beneath,
Bonds are lost,
My life shattered with it
If only the shards were sharp enough to pierce my skull,
And not just my tortured heart
