Tears Of Dedication Poem by Dani Miller

These tears that I cry are for you.
Every single one of them.
No matter what you say,
No matter what anyone in this worlds says,
These tears are for you.

I look at your pain and realize some things,
Like how much I care for you.
Right now if I could take away your pain,
I would do it in a heartbeat.
No questions asked, nothing to test.

Believe me, I would take all your pain,
On top of the pain I already endure.
Anything for your happiness.
Anything for me to hear you laugh.
And actually mean it.

You want to end your life
With one quick blow.
And that triggers my heart
To shatter into peices and burn,
Until there is nothing left.
Nothing left but the residue of depression.

I dont know what to say or do.
I feel so worthless just sitting here.
I know I can do something but I just
Dont know what yet.
Killing me; Eating me; Burning my insides,
Making my life more worthless than before.

Im putting you before everything.
Before the love of my life, my family,
My emotions, even my own health.
Why should I care about myself when
Someone I love is lost in the blackest
Part of depression?

Every tear I cry,
I plan to save and keep.
Then one day I will give them to you.
And let you know how much
I Love You.
