           The Tears Won't Stop
(the poem that hurt to write)

           the tears won't stop
            my throat shrinks
           my heart collapses
            my hands shake
             my body aches

         the bittersweet tears
               steadily flow
        running down my face
              onto my pillow

                my eyes burn
      wishing they could scream
          my bottom lip quivers
         they're all begging you,
             "just listen to me!"

           my vision is blurred
               my face not dry
             wanting your love
             my heart may die

                 You have
              stomped on it
              laughed at it
             screamed at it
                and beat it

      now the tears won't stop

                     Mama,
   All I want is for you to love me.
   Please. I've done everything.
   Please. Please. Just love me.

               I'll do anything.
       Why don't you love me?
     What more do I have to do?

             Mama, I've done
             everything I can

           I can't take any more
                   stomping
                   laughing
                  screaming
                 and beating

              I will take more
    If that will make you love me.

                    I can't.

                 I'm hurting
       and the tears won't stop
