The sobs come
No tears accompany them
I have run out of tears to cry
I used them When i lost the daddy i loved
I used them when i lost the boy i loved
I used them when i lost being good enough
And now ive used them all

Death is but an escape from loneliness

Wow.  this poem really hit home.. I'm sure it did for many of those who read it.
Very nicely done, Empty Tears.  This poem is filled with pain.. I hope things get better for you.
Nice job.

Quite sad here. I felt this a lot.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I felt that I could really feel your pain and sympathise with you on this one.

  You're always good enough...though sometimes its hard to believe that. You did a great job on this, putting your feelings onto the paper, er..screen. Smile.

Such a sad piece... it must be hard to have to go through all of this, and I hope writing this helped you feel better. Thanks for sharing.

The "i used them..." parts were so powerful. And they were very easy for almost anyone to relate to. Good job. Ciao!
