Tears. A poem by Aaron.

crying in pain,crying with the shame of broken hearts,my own with its useless,broken strings.

the salty,wet,river of tears runs down my face,leaving dirty streaks,like old scars returning to hurt me.

extinguishing our fire of love,damp where the flames once burned,licking around me,

you cry too,your chest heaves with each sob,your flames burn no longer ,your crocodile tears bite and nip me in places all over.

one last kiss may re-kindle the heat,but you cast me away on my little torrent of tears to drown in this salty sea.
