I cry


Keep it from her mind
So she can be so blind
Cause shes thinking i am this
And she will always miss
The reasons why
I cry

When i wanna die
I cry
Cause I knew it from the start
And Im going to fall apart
Knew from the start
Just to fall apart

Hear her very voice
I see no other choice
But to say
im okay
Each day
When I cry
Because i dont wanna lie
But im not who she sees
And she always belivies
All the lies
That hide me from her eyes
That have always bound
Me to pieces on the ground
Always bound from her eyes
That she believes
By the guy shes thinks she sees

When look into her eyes
I can see my own lies
That have forced her to believe
That she will never leave
The guy she thinks she sees

I am gonna die
All i do is lie
I knew it from the start
I have fell apart

She believes in me
This isnt so easy
But soon she will see me
For when i hear her voice
Ill have another choice
To say
Im not okay
She will see
The real me

Dont hind it from her mind
So she can see me fine
She'll know im not this
And she will never miss
The reasons why
I cry

Dear FromtheHeart
Considering your critique message:

I won't tell you if I like or dislike this poem, but I will ask you...Do you like it?
Do you feel comfortable with how it turned out?  
After all, you are your best and worst critic.

The poem has an old, but good theme...Angst can be written about over and over from different angles and points of view...

My humble advice is that you read the poem out loud to yourself..eliminate every word that is repetitive, makes you stumble, or does not need to be in it at all...
And be careful of forced rhyme..

Also, that you please keep writting and posting..

Peace--------ice

This was a sad but good poem. I think you really wrote this from the heart. Being repitive is not always a bad thing. Especially if you write it from the heart. Keep up the good poetry Casey!!!

Poetry is beauty in words.
