from verylonelygirl - Tuesday, March 08, 2005 accessed 1127 times I want to stop crying Drip drip drop Little tears of mourning Find me scorning Myself dies away My salty water Doesn't taste good anymore Makes me thirsty And lies to me as I attempt To quench my thirst With my bucket of tears Why can't I take my head out of it? I've sat with my head Between my legs Crying into this bucket Treasuring each tear Comforting myself Wallowing in my loss Who wants my salty water? I can't drink anymore of it Or I will die Crystallized in the pain of this heart A memento for always Of a love gone wrong And me the mummy A pillar of salt As I look back at who I have left behind me My bucket of brine Turn this water to wine The salt retrieve So I can believe Drop drop dead My shadow is fading Find me wading In an ocean of time |
