There's so much pain inside of me,
so much I wonder why,
and when the tears flow freely,
you wonder why I cry.
I cry because I'm hurting,
there's an empty space,
I cry because I hate you,
for taking away the grace.
I cry because I want,
just to be with you.
I cry because there is nothing,
not a thing I can do.
I cry because the world hurts,
and no one seems to care,
so if you understand me,
just try to be there.

----------------------------------------------------
Do you ever feel the tears coming, but they never do>?

Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see.

Whoever is making you feel like this isnt worth your tears. Actually no one is. You spilled out your feelings really well. And I give you props for that.

Awwwww I can feel your pain in this one.  I too, have been here.  So many days I wanted to just give up.  Yet here I am still.  The hurt does go away, well at least mine did.  It takes time and many steps forward for this to happen though.

Luck be with you

Allysa...I have felt this way before...I will share this poem with you I wrote sometime ago

One Tear Follows

one tear then another
each accepting the one above
until the heaviness is too much to bear
and they begin their flow

with each tear comes a memory
of a time of smiling eyes
laughing lines
and sensations uncontrolled

a beginning to an end
an end to a beginning
the mind swirls searching
for that right mix
a balance of thoughts
to bring back those smiles
to bring back your taste
to bring back the feel of you

lips drying up from lack of your kisses
eyes closing to all dreams never seen
mind emptying of wants that never realize
body forgetting the ache that once was

one tear then another
each accepting the one above
until the heaviness is too much to bear
and they continue their flow...

Crying can cleanse our soul

wishing you happiness, always  

~Wynter

Erin: there is no one except larry             ( whose name does not deserve a capital letter) to make me cry. Justin sometimes upsets me, but I don't really cry over that. When I cry it's scary because I seem to roll around and shake and everything get's blurry.

DW, thank you for replying.

Wynter: You are making me cry. That poem reminds me so much of Justin and Jesica.

Wow, I know what you mean... sometimes I want to cry for no reason and all the reasons together at the same time...
Great poem, take care!

All good reasons to cry, but I hope you do feel better soon. It isn't easy, I know.
Take care.

That's the situation thatactually hurts more.  When the tears don't come out, it means it's really bad.  Keep up the good work and keep sharing

The tears never come because sooner or later we cry too many and they just dry out.  I've been there with you (I know that sounds cliche), but I have.  Nice work    Look forward to more.

yea ive felt the tears come and they dont. It's like i cry so much or i just feel so bad that the tears never really have the inniciative or drive to just come up.
whats even more crappier than crying is not being able to cry!

Yes just recently I was hurting and I couldn't cry...and I was wondering why I couldn't...weird feeling...later I was able to cry by thinking about something else and then I could think about all the unhappiness I have been feeling lately..
Reminds me of the time I drank about 20 cups of coffee socializing with friends and that night I couldn't sleep and I wanted to sleep so bad but I couldn't...so I stoped drinking coffee for about a year after that because I was so mad that I couldn't go to sleep...now 2 or 3 is my limit..James

Before everyone at my school knew exactly what happened to Jesica, back when we  were just aware that the police were at her house, I said I didn't think I could cry for her b/c I thought it was just her brother getting into trouble again. When I found out what happened, I just started bawling. I cry A LOT!!!  

Morning rain fell on my window, and I can't see at all. Even if I could it would all be gray, put your picture on my wall, it reminds me that it's not
