The Lie : Relationship Poetry

The Lie

I will not cry

Empty the light

I sigh to the night

I will not cry

I will not cry

I call to the lord

My sorrow is stored

I will not cry

I will not cry

I tell my heart

Though it rips apart

I will not cry

I will not cry

I confess

While heavy my chest

I will not cry

I will not cry

I implore to the rain

My soul wrenches in pain

I will not cry

I will not cry

I lament the dead

Though I feel dread

I will not cry

I will not cry

My lover is gone

I must hold on

I will not cry

I will not cry

I call to the sky

My tears bare the lie

I cry.
