• Not a single tear slides down my cheek
    As my chest tightens and I hurt inside.
    But nobody will know. I won't cry.
    I sit alone once again.
    You left me with a broken heart.
    As it bleeds through the cuts
    Left by your touch, staining my hands.
    We've been good friends and still are.
    But for now stay away.
    I need some time and space.
    I don't want to cry in front of you
    Or any of my friends.
    My pain is my own tearing me apart.
    For now I'll turn away so you don't see
    Me wipe away that forbidden tear
    That slides down my cheek.
