Mascara Tears

As I washed away my mascara stain

I wiped away my tears.

I looked into the mirror and noticed

my heart felt forever bruised.

I've made so many mistakes

I feel like I've been cursed.

I feel so small in this big big world

so helpless and confused.

If I could just take this all away

and begin my life anew.

I'd jump off this cliff

and hang off the edge

and wish my life to be renewed.

But now I feel like I'm

hanging from this flimsy thread

just waiting to be found.

Silently drowning

forever frowning

in my mascara tears.
