Poetry: Angry tears

Beyond


You spilled your pain across the pages of my soul

as if it was not indelible ink

and the stain might fade one day. It wouldn't.


I bore your marks,

the scars you left behind as an afterthought.


Wearied by your shredding talons,

I grew, if only to resent your constant anguish,

your unceasing horrors

that diminished Beauty where she would breathe.


I raged when you turned my love against me,

a club in your hands

to decimate all that's good and true.


How can you curl in shadows,

a wingd viper without resolution?


Why can you not be satisfied,

no matter how many gifts are laid at your feet?


I have torn my heart

with grieving for your sake.


I am knotted and mangled

by your infinite darkness.


Yet, still I am arisen from the ash,

complete.

    Why won't they listen, why won't they hear, the angry tears.

    These are the ones I cry when no one is looking.

    ANGRY

    tears,

    like lava erupting

    from deep within.

    I'm bleeding inside out,

    burning with rage,
