Memories have stained my mind
Much like a damaged pens ink seeps deep into cloth
All these things,
So bitter sweet
Have made me become this tired face
The mask has started to fade now as my energy disapears
Though I am still putting on this foolish play
Doubt has tiptoed quietly into worriers voices
But I know that no matter how much longer I keep these tears inside
They cannot keep hiding behind closed eyes forever
The tears will sneak away from thier prison
Much like the happy memories I haven't felt in so long. will soon fade away
leaving only the painful thoughts
to continue to dwell and damage inside

Well written pain, Sara. And sometimes those tears will release themselves at the least opportune moment! But remember, they also help cleanse.

But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul
