Honest Tears

'There is nothing more honest than a tear'

Then why can I cry a million on cue,
But for you I cried non,
When you left on a text,
I just sighed with 'Oh Well',
Then later 'Go to Hell',
Before the tears finally fell,
All of a sudden;
When I least expected.

Then I found deep inside,
A part that I'd hid,
And a waterfall came
In an honest cascade I'd been afraid
To show myself before.
Now here I am,
With my heart, on your doorstep,
And my pride in the gutter,
As I stutter 'Take me back',
Through honest tears
Only the mirror sneaks a glimpse of.
