So Sad

The tears keep coming
Unbidden, unwanted
And the big stick keeps pounding
Slamming into my head
At some point it will stop
It must when I’m dead
When there is nothing left of me at all
Is there anything there now
Anyone peeking through the sockets of my eyes
Where once I imagined a spark
Extinguished now by my tears
Because all I am now is
So sad
