Invisible Tears

by Cherie Partridge, Pisces - Not entered


                iNVISIBLE TEARS


Invisible tears are pouring from my eyes,
making me stumble blindly 
through the darkness that has descended
like Zorro's black cape,
around my soul.

Invisible despair causes my heart to jump
up into my throat,
and I ache with the strain of breathing 
while this tombstone of grief
makes me choke on my sorrow.

Invisible knives rip and tear my heart to shreds,
and the days ahead 
lie shattered at my feet,
like the jagged pieces of a broken mirror.

Invisible pain is paralizing my life.
My brain goes into a catatonic coma,
induced by an overdose of feelings killers.

Invisible tears are flowing out of
invisible me,
and I just might cry
until there's no more me left...

That nobody can see.
