No More Tears
By: JoAnna Martin

No more tears for you shall I cry.
It’s over now, we’ve just said good-bye.
The heart inside my chest is broken
spilling the blood upon which I am choking.
There’s no one here for me at all.
No one to catch me when I fall.
The blade is in my hand to kill me and the pain.
Why am I doing this?  I must be insane!
Confusing thoughts swirl around in my head.
I think to myself:  am I better off dead?
Probably not, suicide is not the way
to solve all your problems; your torturously pay.
In the fiery depths of hell is where you’ll be 
with no one to help you, no one to set you free.
Is lost love really worth taking your life?
I obviously don’t think so, I put down my knife.
I realize now it would be a stupid mistake
and also the last mistake I’d ever make.
But I’m back on my feet and I’ve cleared my mind
still searching for answers I one day hope to find.
Like why did you leave me for no reason at all?
Why did you hide your emotions behind a wall?
Why didn’t you share your feelings with me?
Why was our relationship filled with hypocrisy?
All these questions I think about still
but I know I’ll be fine-everyone says I will. 
No more tears for you shall I cry.
It’s over now, we’ve just said good-bye.
