Did you ever see me cry? Hiding in my own corner-- It was a dismal place as dark as Night and as pressing as the Silent presence of death. Did you ever watch me cry? Every tear a diamond, And upheaval of sobs, Disquieting the stillness, And disappearing into shadows. Have you ever noticed The drowning of my eyes, Pools of pain and unpleasant misery, Poaching my soul, While undetected by others?

Have you ever noticed The drowning of my eyes, Pools of pain and unpleasant misery, Poaching my soul, While undetected by others?
Laciniate: fringed; jagged, slashed.
