Onyx Cries

By Dekika

Don't look at my disgrace
see not my puffy eyes
look away to something brighter
ignore my whimpering cries

Release me from your grip
walk away as I fall to the ground
don't look back as I lie there
don't hear my disheartening sound

Leave me alone in this world
to curl up in my own little ball
to bleed away the sadness
to continue life at a crawl

Do not gaze upon me again,
you said your last goodbyes
leave me here to stain my soul
with my eternal onyx cries.
