why do we cry
when we know that tears
cant make the pain go away?
that all they are is useless water
falling from your eyes
stinging your broken lips
and not healing your broken heart.
why do we cry
if nothing can stop the pain
we can cry rivers in a lifetime
and swim in nothing but the pain they never stopped.
we try so hard to feel everything
to see everything in the world
but pain
we never want it
because you cannot touch it or see it
you just try to catch the fallen tears
in your hands and in your heart.

i love this poem, i love how it says that even though you cry it can't take the pain away, i will admit i'm a cry baby, and i cry about stupid things, i guess sometimes it kinda helps even if it doesnt fix the problems, i like the flow and the touching words you have put into this well structured poem, good luck in the contest and keep writing, -your sis, ♥ and hugs

i loved it much!
though crying will not solve your problems
it is way to just let things go.
some try to hide there tears others do not
i liked the poem great work dear.
