Black Tears
Black tears fall
Like mascara stains
Dark as ebony
Her face rains
All too real
Too frail to touch
Her face in ruins
What remains, isn\'t much
Billions of scars
Engraved deep in her skin
Imperfect stitches
Signs of sin
Her desires ignored
Confidence stolen
Emptiness plagues her
Left again, broken
Those black tears
Leaving their mark
The hurt never ends
Hanging in the dark
I know her well
Looking her in the eye
The mirror speaks
For it is I
