I just want to collapse in my room,
But mounds of clothes block the door.
I just want to be covered and warm,
But my mangled blankets lie on the floor.
I just want to sit and cry,
But my tissues are too far away.
I just want to lie on my bed,
But my cat lies in the way.
I just want to cross my room
Without stepping on CD’s.
I just want to open my window,
But I don’t want to feel the breeze.

With all I have and all I want and all I’ve ever gotten,
Of course I’m happy, but I pass that by
And the fortune is forgotten.
Even when the sun is shining
After a plentiful rain,
I only look down at the wetness,
And still I must complain.
Yes, I’m lucky, compared to others,
But I’ve learned over the years,
Behind the objects of happiness
There is always room for tears.

I know how you feel. Nice poem.

Wow....I know exactly how you feel. Especially because my room's a dump, too haha But you're right, there's always room for tears. Very nice, kind of has me speechless just because I know. So thats all I'm going to say, I know

to be human is to hurt, regardless of our seeming circumstance...there is always room for tears. And don't make yourself or anyone else make you feel guilty for that.
I can SO relate to this.

yeah oops sorry, somehow posted that twice... anyways, this whole 'down' attitude is usually not mine, I really try to be optimistic and very grateful, and most of the time I am... but just being a teenager, sometimes, I just feel like curling up and crying, and I can't really think of why i'm so sad, but i just know it would feel nice to cry... so this poem just came to me one night when I couldn't seem to do anything but sit and write.

very well conveyed!

you know the balance...to revel in what you have, and still have room for modest tears every now and then.
