No Tears To Cry Anymore Poem by Jeri Martindale

Where are the tears that I should be crying?
No more sorrys?
I am slowly dying, trying to put the broken pieces
of our 'perfect life' back together wondering if I am
wasting my energy and time on another broken promise.

I listened this time when GOD told me it was time to rest my body,
to explore my mind, to find my soul and set it on fire.

Who are you inside, behind those cold eyes?
Have you ever even attempted to seek what you are inside,
it is worth trying.

It has to be better than the monster portrayed on the outside
that is growing, thriving.
Taking over your body and mind pulling everything good inside of you
further from the light, killing your soul a little at a time.
Why are you not fighting this monster, why haven't you even tried it.

I can not keep on like this, my light is burning brightly.
I will watch you walk away,
I can do it with out even crying.

You have a limited amount of time to prove to me that
you aren't once again lying
so go fix yourself, kill the monster, free the love inside of you.

Or it will be goodbye, I will take off our marriage ring
and watch you walk away from me, so that I can live
to fulfill the purpose GOD has planned for me.
