Scarlet Tears

As my life turns, all I see is spinning colors, whirling lines.
Confusion is all around me, I can’t breath, my heart is pounding,
So loud I can’t hear the world, going on around me.
People are screaming at me, I see them, but all I can hear is my heart,
How could it be beating so loud, so fast?
How can it seem so alive, when I feel so dead?
My heart aches, but still it beats, the only blood I see,
Is running down my face, I am crying scarlet tears.
I see people screaming at me, telling me to wake up.
But I can’t respond, its almost as if they pay no attention to the real
me!
Don’t they see I am crying, crying my scarlet tears, they burn, burn like
acid rain. I feel so dead. I am crying asking for help, pleading with
everyone around me,
And though I see their faint shadows screaming at me.
They never stop, stop to wipe my scarlet tears.
They poor like the rain, but no one notices.
I am drowning in my own blood.
“Help Me!” I sob, but again no one pays attention,
And I fade into the nothing once again,
The nothing that kills me,
And I am dying in my own scarlet tears…………………..
