Tears

Tears falling from my eyes
Ridding of my sorrow
Washing away the pain
I’ve kept for years
My heart freeing all of my pain
The pain that rips me apart
The bits of sorrow finally leaving its place
It’s place that once was it’s home

The loneliness that I still feel
Lingers in my soul
Feeling lost
Not able to find my way home
A place to call home would be a wonderful find

Trying to bury my pain
Farther and farther in my heart
Not wanting it to speak
But I am tragically reminded
On that depressing day

Remembering my past
My past I refuse to remember
It wasn’t a childhood

Only remembering the bad
Seeing people die
The ones who kept my safe

I remember when I used to feel warm
Loved
Now I’m left alone
Cold

Trying to hide behind a smile
And bright eyes
Trying to be someone else
Not showing any pain

No one would expect that I was hurting
Hurting so bad
That everything was fucked up

Slowly regaining my strength
After its been torn apart
Slowly finding my way home
Getting past the darkness
And finding the light

Author notes

This is sort of about how I never tell anyone when I'm hurting, and I dont like to talk about my problems. There are a few things that are really bothering me, but I cant tell anyone. They just won't come out.

This is also about how I lost two people who I was very close too. And how my father is now a very bitter person. I miss how things used to be.

I often feel lost, and depressed. I am usually a happy kid, but I guess I am in one of my depressed states.

    Isn't it nice to have poetry to help with inner demons. You were very expressive in this piece. Nice job. Keep it up.
