Purple tears fall around me.

Puddles of purple born from all this sadness.

Soaking my feet, breaking my heart.

Purple tears fall around me.

The Shades of purple swirl in

the water.

Washing my soul, and drowning my

Sobbing.

Purple tears fall around me.

My laughter is lost in sea of deep.

My smile tossed in waves.

My hope long since vanished swept

upstream from all this sadness.

Purple tears fall around me.

I miss my smile, I miss my laughter.

I want my hope, I don’t like drowning.

But I can’t swim and I can’t be

rescued because of these never ending

purple tears falling all around me.
