Tears

She couldn’t cry anymore tears.
She had none left to shed.
She had cried them all away for someone who never mattered.
For someone whom she thought she would love for an eternity.
But he made his true self known and with that he shattered her idea of happiness.
She cried incessantly until the tears stopped on their own.
She wasn’t over him and she wasn’t over their love.
But her eyes were swollen, her nose blood red, and her face had aged.
She had nothing left to give in this time of mourning.
She wanted to cry but her tears just wouldn’t come.
