Still tears

Cant find the tears, my eyes a desert empty and dry
too many cried over so many years, my mind on standby
like my emotions are lost in a far away meadow
but the tears just wont flow

Emotionally drained, pain too deeply ingrained
cant face the day, the nights, the weeks are strained
every hour the clocks go slow
and still the tears wont flow

Cries used up, tear ducts taped shut
an empty vessel, no feelings well up
like I'm crawling through freezing cold snow
and the tears wont flow

My thoughts wont show, they stop still, they don't go
the pain inside builds up, I feel it grow and grow
but my eyes never got the memo
and still the tears wont flow

The icy chill in the spine, the mind gone blind
the loss, all those memories I can no longer find
Inside I'm crying but the words a no-show
and still the tears wont flow

Thanks.
Kyle.

The last week has been one of the hardest in my life, I lost my father unexpectedly, which is one of the reasons I have been a bit quieter than usual.  I am also working on a separate project which is taking a lot of my time, but please keep checking back here there will be more poetry, thank you for reading my work, it is really appreciated.
