I Can Only Weep

Just when I thought
I could laugh
mouth wide
open
Something smacks me in the face
like a brick
breaking my jaw
I cannot speak
I can only weep
Just when I thought
I was awake
eyes wide
open
Something hits me in the head
like a brick
breaking my brain
I cannot think
I can only weep
Right when I believed
I was alive
moving
on
Something strikes me in the chest
like a knife
piercing my heart
I cannot let go
I can only weep
