All my tears

By torn_beauty

If I collected all my tears,
and put them in a jar,
next to another jar filled with dreams,
I wonder what they would think
when they had seen,
that the former outdid the latter.

And if I placed a smile on my face,
that never left, never wavered,
I wonder if they would ever suspect
ever think, even wonder
if it was fake,
just like the kindness they give me.


So if one day I just dissapeared,
left them my broken dreams,
and my overflowing tears,
a little reminder of what i wanted to be
would they give it any second thoughts?

When I do just leave
I wonder if I would be missed
or would they rejoice?
Because I had taken my grave
presence from theirs.

Finally left them in peace.
