Hey guys! Please respond!
Love Always,
Tara


Tears

Somehow I can
Smile through these tears
And somehow I manage
To face all my fears
These tears,
That I never let fall,
Ive held them back,
Through it all.
Ive put on a smile,
That never seems to fade,
From holding my tears back,
The price that I have paid...
It tore me up,
It really did,
To keep these feelings,
So well hid.
I finally found the courage,
To tell you how I feel,
Cuz I'll never find a love,
That is truly this real.
You promised me,
Youd always be there,
But now it seems,
That you just dont care.
I want these tears to fall,
But that would mean Ive given in,
And to do that
Would be a mortal sin
Im clinging to a past,
That doesnt let me choose,
It doesnt let me win,
It only lets me lose.
Makes me lose a love,
That I once had,
Leaves me wondering why,
And always makes me sad.
I still wont let these tears fall,
Even from this pain,
Cuz its really not your fault,
I'm the one to blame.
But for some reason,
I refuse to cry.
I've cried before,
But just cant now
Id let it all out,
But I really dont know how.
The fear of losing you,
Leaves me down,
And feeling blue.
But you see Ive already lost you,
Cuz I didnt know what to do
I didnt realize then,
That youre my only one.
So now im left,
To feel down,
Cuz your love,
Is not around.
Even through this pain,
I manage to smile through my tears,
And if one day they fall,
I might forget my fears.

Tara,

All I have to say is there is a three letter word that everyone hates to hear, but alway seem to help them. And it helps everyone. You know sometimes...
people think that to not cry makes a person strong, but in all reality it only makes them weak. Think about that please, and don't take what i said wrong please.

that is a good one
you described each feeling so well and in detail
i do agree with Angel though, crying could do you good
there's nothing wrong with it
as you said, it'll torn you apart already
Thanks for the read
I really would love to see you post more

Hey....well this was a very touching and emotional post. I like the form, you don't really change structure from line to line. Personally though, I find that tears get some emotion out as does poetry. They can't solve anything, but they might help you heal. I would stick with the poetry.
Wonderful job

Hey everyone! Thanks for responding. It really means a lot to me when people say what they feel about what I write. And yes, I am writing this from life experiance but it was awhile ago. Ive cried many times since I wrote that and I feel a lot better with the help of all my friends. Thanks again for reading!
