Every tear represents a name,
and every name means something more.
Holding on to the never let go feeling.
Hoping that it stays in your soul.
Memories that will never fade,
with each second not cherished enough.
There will always be things you'll never get to say, and things you'll no more enjoy.
Though waking up is a little uneasy,deep down inside you know you must go on.
And when your tears finally stop bleeding... your hear will say it's ready to move along.

Very, very nice. I loved it. The only thing I might change is the wording in a few places. I got caught up while reading it at "the never let go feeling." (I don't know what I'd do with this. :/) and "things you'll no more enjoy." (I would just change it to "things you'll no longer enjoy". Idk, it just sounds better to me.) and "you know you must go on." (this one wasn't too bad and could be left).

Overall, I very much liked it. ♥
