The Black Tears

Usually, tears are blue.

These tears I cry, are not.

My tears are the color black.

--

They not only show sorrow,

But they also show anger,

Hatred, lonliness...

--

I cry not for myself,

Or for those I lost,

But for those I care about.

--

Each tear stands for a memory;

A sad memory,

A distant memory,

A forgotten memory...

--

If only those I care about

Cared for me more,

Then my tears will be blue again.
