Tears that dried up on her cheeks
found a different path to flow
toxic notes that dried up ink
had more and more to show
There were writings on the floor
emotions running slow
scratching metaphors, subtle rhymes
crooked smiles she drew solo
Though nothing stopped her drifting mind
from spilling thoughts and words
the sun had sunk into the ground
the moon had struck a shine
Nightmares seeped into her eyes
she tried to fall awake again
but bursting clouds drowned the skies
the rain became her friendly pain
