Tom Hunsperger

my heart bleeds
like the tears flowing from my bloodshot eyes
when I cry
but I cry not the tears of joy, of happiness
I bleed not from a heart in love, from a heart in bliss
I cry the tears of pain, the tears of agony
My heart is engulfed in anguish, in hurt, in jealousy
for it was my fault she's gone
it was my life
my love
and every shread of my being
that drove her away
