Mascara

Sitting on the bathroom floor
Wiping away the days make-up..
and seeing the mascara streek down her cheeks
Like it has so many sleepless nights.
Remembering the tears..
and the pain.
Remembering how good it felt to cry
and how good It would feel now.
She cant even cry anymore.
The tears will no longer fall.
Her soul has been stabbed and
wounded so many times she cant even cry.
Shes stone..
and shes so cold, shes numb.
Sure..It hurts..
But everything hurts.
She always hurts.
So shes become numb.
She has to bleed..
Bleed just to feel..
The blood replaces her tears.
She can always bleed..as long as shes living
there is blood to be bled.
The tears have stopped..
after everything shes already been through
hardly anything shocks her..
and the pain grows worse everyday.
So even if everything went wrong..
even if the few friends she had betrayed her..
even if the heavens were set fire..
She wouldnt cry.
She'd take it like everything else..
Lock it all up inside..
and her broken soul would
crawl through life as usual.
