Lately, I don't understand. I don't understand how, How I can't control the water that rolls down my eyes like a waterfall. It's meant to flow when I'm sad, It's meant to assist me when I'm sober. It does the opposite, It makes me feel no remorse. It makes me feel powerful. Sometimes, I question it, "Why have thee forsaken me when I need thee?" it still does not reply. I feel powerless over it. it has more control. One day, I stayed in the darkness. my eyes were closed. I was trying to blind myself from reality. I was trying to create a world full of my own fantasies. But it didn't work out well. Tears crept in from behind, they woke me up. I was so close to escaping but they brought me back. I tried to hold them in but they came faster than I ever imagined. They sneaked in through a Trojan horse. An unforeseen enemy. They made me feel vulnerable. I didn't need them but they came. I'm sure they laughed because of the victory, I cried because of my pain.

I'm sure they laughed because of the victory, I cried because of my pain.
at a period in time, i could not control my tears. and whenever i felt remorse, they was no tears to express it.
