The Tears

I want to cry,
Maybe even die.

What did I do wrong?
How would I know? It's been so long.

The tears they fall from my face to the floor.

Please don't leave me,
Please don't walk out the door.

I want to cry,
Maybe even die.

My wings are broken,
Taken for treasure. A token.

What did I do wrong?
How would I know? It's been so long.

The tears they fall,
Dropping lower and lower.

They world is spiraling up?
No. Down, down, down.

I'm stuck in this black abyss.
What did I miss?

Is this hell?
I don't know. It's too dark to tell.

The tears they fall,
As I walk down this empty hall.

I walk alone,
Only greeted by walls and stone.
