As I stared down at the blank page
I couldn't think of the words to say
No... I could hear the words perfectly
I just couldn't say them out loud or even write them down
Until one tear fell
Soon the rest of the page was covered in tears
I say nothing
I hope for nothing
I learned this lesson long ago
Don't put your hope in anyone's hands
They will always disappoint you
I am not angry, I am not sad, nor hurt
I am numb
But still the tears fall
They are louder than any words I could ever write
But I would not dare let anyone see them
Night covers us all
And still the tears fall.
