I hope you cry
1/30/10
I wish you would cry
Break
Release
Breathe
And find your smile
I have to be honest and say
I don’t recognize you anymore
What was once bright
Light
Sunny
Inspiring
Soft
Sweet
kind
Is melting slowly
Into something
Unrecognizable
And hard
I can’t say Black
Cause Black is Beautiful
You are beautiful
That deep down
Constant swirling core of you
Is beautiful
I know one day
You will dig through the muck
Face the strong tower of your pain
And knock it over
Instead of blinding yourself
To the hurt that is
Making you heavy
While you strive to be weightless
Pouring yourself out
Into any receptacle with an open hole
I hurt for you
Crying tears you cannot cry
Wanting to be held
Because I know you need it too
You are special
And worth so much more
Than you are allowing yourself to see
I pray your eyes will open
And I have faith that one day they will
And they will release the teardrops
That make your face so heavy today
I miss your smile
And I pray one day
You will cry
