quietly weeping
in my darkened room
tears I shed
like most before
are falling in bitterness
I reflect wounds
some old scars
some new abrasions
dampening my face
discoloring my shirt
distorting my conciousness
I wipe them away hastily
hating these feelings
this knotted chest
this raging headache
this pounding heart
these clenched fists
I try each time
to express my feelings
but tonight was different
tonight I got the answer I feared
the answer of an honest reacton
the reaction that causes pain
the reaction of equal hate
These tears I shed
like most before
are falling in bitterness
sitting here now
I joke to myself
"Look at me now
pathetic and weak
sobbing in my room
over some fool
I must have shed
a thousand tears."
