This Cry

This cry
began with one
single tear
streaming down
into my drink
I with convulsing despair
shuddered helpless to the floor
in awe of each growing wave
of mindbending agony
unable to believe
in any moment
outside of this one
gripping towels on the wall
as I fall in a heap
begging the gods
to stop my heart
from feeling
questioning everything
that I ever believed
questioning everything
that I ever believed
this cry
began with one
single tear
which I have brushed away
for far too long
always taunting me
with its salty self
and this burning lump
of repressed emotion
which rests like candy
in my throat.
