My Tears are Crimson

By Vindicated_untouchable

When I cry
My tears are crimson
I do not cry for myself
I cry for those who have suffered as I have
For those whose eyes pierce my heart
Blood drips from my orbs
When I see your pupils clouded
With the pain you want no one to notice
I cry the blood that was spilt the night
That daddy came home too late
I cry the sorrow that was felt
When you buried your first-born
I cry the pain that was inflicted
The night the strange man crept into your bed
I cry the blood that seeped from your wrists
When hop was out of reach
I cry for the souls of those that passed
That didnt complete their journey
I cry the fetus of the unborn child
That mommy wouldnt let you keep
I cry for the living dead
And the unborn
My tears are crimson
