Tears

I hugged her and cried...again. 

I whispered my secrets to her, sobbed my heartaches and showed her the crumbling fragments of my heart... 

She just stared and didnt say a word. 
She never says anything! 

Clutching at her, I buried my face deeper into her soft shoulder, my own heaving with sobs no one knows exist... 

She didnt even hug me back. 

My heart burned with fury and I wanted to shake her. Yell at her. 
But as I looked at her glassy eyes, button nose and woolen hair my grip on her arms loosened and she fell into my lap as the tears fell faster...
