Hidden Tears

Hidden tears, falling from my eyes
Soundless wailing, screaming, flailing
Empty face, a harlequin disguise
Broken sounds of heartbeats failing

Poisoned sunshine burning in my mind
Twilight dreams and phantoms beckon
Pull me down where none can ever find
Hide me for an endless second

Closing eyes, pushing back the sight
Vertigo of constant feeling
Ever deeper, falling through the night
Darkness closing, twisting, reeling

Shattered dreams, shards of might have been
Restless hunger, throbbing, aching
All my being, all I am within
Ever broken, ever breaking
