Tears of Black

Have you ever had a time in your life where you had difficulty expressing hurts and fears? If you are a guy that is all the time. This is apart of my pain and my prayer from October 2001.

Endless days of forgotten youth
Life ends in hushed silence
Crushed
Beautifully
Endless nights of broken dreams
Life falls in a deafening quiet
Obliterated
Wonderfully
Reaching for the inevitability of nothing
Grasping for reality
My heart shatters
Broken by the force of past hurts
Undone love
Always
The tears from my heart are black
The silence is unbearable
The screams are real
I fall to my knees
I cannot stop this pain
It courses throughout my being
Jesus
Save me from myself
Again
Always
Break this pain that breaks my heart
Caress my life with your gentleness
My burden
I cannot cry with tears that are rest
My tears are dark
They do not fall without ripping my pain
Jesus
The beauty of your touch blinds me
I need your touch
Your love
Your heart
Let me cry on your peace
Jesus
Forever
