these tears will fall no more

By SourInnocence

Tears fall from blood shot eyes
Hands holding each other
In a lap you no longer need.
Pain pulls at the stitches of this fragile heart
Pictures strewn across the floor
Of a home you left behind.
Stitch by stitch I fall apart without you
Cries escape the lips
That you’d rather not kiss
Glass shatters from the picture frames
Hope dies and fades to black
And the tears will fall no more.
