I wish I were dead
Instead of just dying
Not that it matters
What good is crying?
What good is bleeding
When nothing will change?
What good is pleading
Or feeling deranged?
What good is laughing
Hiding your cries?
What good are smiles
If they're only lies?
What good are poems?
They only delay
They get out the feelings
But just for today
Tomorrow's still coming
With life's little griefs
More unwanted fears
And still no relief
Maybe I should get it out
Show it all to you
Stop bottling it up
But what good would it do?
Author notes
I wrote this poem a long time ago and was just thinking about it tonight for some reason and decided to post it

Hey what's up....?
been a while...
Glad you posted this....Do have any other writes you're hiding from us....?
lol....I like this one alot,
It's really deep and speaks a unique melody, with the truths we all can see.
I loved your rhymes in this as they were all clevorly situated...
In your words I would say..."two stoner thumbs up"
but you've left me speechless....
All i can do is drop to my knees before your graceful skill and place at your feet a single ebony rose...
Great write...
Hope to see/hear from you soon....
Peace and Love,
Matt

Great write!
I seem to know where you are coming from with this one. But i really liked it all the same. The flow is good and the rhyme doesnt sound forced at all.
Keep Up The Good Work!!!

A well written, sad piece. Your rhyme scheme is excellent. A bit depressing for the season but sometimes we have to let it all out. Thanks for sharing. Hope you're feeling in a happier frame of mind now. Hugs Kath

You know, I don't normally like stuff with this type of feel/theme to it, but I like how you wrote this. Not to mention how easy it is to relate to searching for ways to get our feelings out.

Dear April we smile for the joy of smiling and laugh for the joy of laughter. Our bodies and minds become conditioned after a while to be negative or positive whatever we choose! Please choose to see past the pain and struggle of life to the rainbow inside of our smiles and our childrens laughter! We all need to live in the moment for who knows what the future holds and if we spend our nows crying and wondering why me you may miss the last chance you have to embrace the joy of this life whether we are poor or rich, because in the end all we have is now. It is always good to get it out and express because keeping it in will only eat at you. It's like carrying a corpse. It begins to weigh you down and stink. So please vent, write and smile afterwards and allow it to leave you. I am always here for you and you know I care deeply for you! Life is a struggle and it seems that some of us are just dealt a shitty hand. We are the strong ones whether we like it or not so buck up because I need you and so does you precious young Goddess! mwahhhhhhhhhhhhhh keep ya head up chica I love you!
