weeping hearts and broken eyes

with a weeping heart i stand beside you,
we're pulling our chests open for all to see
so that the tears we claim as our own
may flow unrestrained and powerful indeed.
i've got my soul in one tiny hand
and my heart in the other.
the soul glances at the heart only to reject it
and turns it's eyes to cover.
"we are what we create"
is posted upon my nakeid breast
announcing to all what i am:
i am a watered heart in a hollow chest.

my eyes are so discolored and broken
from the years that i have rubbed the pair.
they bleed and it comes out as from a paper cut,
just a little at a time for prolonged flair.
my tearful heart and bleeding eyes
make a fine couple for those who appreciate sorrow.
and this night tissues wont stop the tears or      
because i feel what you feel, the sadness of tomorrow



now im alone, but not lonely like before
