They Don't See The Dew On The Leaves Which Were My Tears Because Those Aren't From My Eyes.
they don't see the dew on the leaves which were my tears because those aren't from my eyes.
they don't know i cannot cry because i am just an echo of desert, and everything is dry.
instead of my eyes, my heart cries.
my heart yells evertime a nail is pierced on my soul which is so concealed that it is as invisible as air.
i have no place to shed tears. i have no home to weep.
for me, these leaves cry. they know the pain i am enduring. they understand my heartache.
i have eyes but they see me more. they are my companion in my best and worse. they give me a way to breathe.
i could never be more thankful to what earth gave me and how soil is always giving me a place to keep my feet on.
i am fortunate enough to have a friend no one else has.

you are just a thought far away for deciding what you wanna be.
maybe someday soon, we'll be there, together, forever.
TODAY I'M 19.
being a teenager made me realize it was not my fault. every blame they put on me was never ever mine.
