re-using tissues

by Emily Davidson

i'm crying again tonight
in the bathroom
with the door shut

and i'm alone
with the lights off
and the tears
falling into my hands or to
the floor


i'm re-using tissues
.
things aren't easy
.
they never were


when you put all you have
into one
passion,
you can lose everything

so tonight i'm crying

i have someone but he wont
even
hold me close
anymore
he wont even tell me
everything's gonna be okay


i'm re-using tissues
.
things aren't easy
.
they never were

I like it, love the title. Is it a song?

Wow. Seriously, something about your words that transfer so well to my psyche, really take every ounce of empathy from my body.
