Tears of Salt.

I look for a reason,
To stem the flow,
I have a secret,
That the world doesn’t know.

Myself, my blood,
Runs never dry,
Myself, my blood,
Taught me to cry.

My body weeps,
Tears of salt,
I want it to stop,
My blessing, my fault.

Self-discovery,
Now I need time for recovery,
To regain my self-control,
Stop to make sure it doesn’t taint my soul.

The waters are building,
Pressure within the guilding,
Never know whether to follow,
Into that forsaken hollow.

Should I stand still?
And allow my body to fill?
Without having release,
No grant of physical peace.

One in a majority,
My self-esteem falling,
One in a million.
My self-esteem fallen.

Save me from myself,
This uncontrollable feeling,
Mind blowing!
My shivering soul showing.

You can touch my highest star,
How long to go? Not far.
Hold me against this blessing,
Don’t touch me-no caressing,

Build me a bridge, over these waters for us to cross,
Arm in arm, hand in hand,
Take me to-
The other side.

Make me secure,
Dry, solid, and more,
Where water doesn’t threaten to flood,
Where I can’t taste my blood.

My body weeps,
Tears of salt,
I want it to stop,
My blessing, my fault.
