Endless Tears


I can see through this veil of tears
This pain rolling from eyes
A heart wrenching tour of myriad years
Choking memories of human cries

Perhaps my sanity has finally departed
Stolen from my immortal soul
Centuries of agony and the broken hearted
Of which much has been my role

A once calloused soul immune to their pleas
Has been snapped into grace
For my atonement can never appease
Haunted am I by each mortal face

Their cries for mercy are now painful shouts
And my heart now cries for them
I'm doomed if I cannot shut them out
For my suffering has no end
