Sleeping On Tears Cried

by aDORKable x3   Mar 4, 2007


I wish this didn't hurt,
as much as it does right now.
Don't tell me to be strong,
then ignore when I ask how.

Don't tell me to stop crying.
It's my release of pain.
I told you that this hurts too much;
I don't wanna go through this again.

All the crying hurts my heart;
tired are my eyes.
Can't you see you're killing me;
Why can't you realize?

Now my heart is breaking,
and there's nothing I can do.
I'm sick of all this pain,
and what you've put me through.

Why do we go through this again?
Why this return to pain?
Didn't you get enough of it.
or does your anger reign?

I try to hold my head up,
but my neck continues to bend.
Now my heart's torn in two.
Broken; unable to mend.

If I could tell you all the things
I've bottled up inside,
then maybe I won't have to sleep
on all the tears I've cried.

    the ending is fabuous.. as well as the emotion... a very strong poem.. the last line of the first stanza.. seems a bit forced.. but other than that an enjoyable read

    Aw! Wow, I love this. It is so beautiful. & So very captivating. The emotion in this is very deep & strong. & so easy to relate too.

    It flowed really well & nothing seemed forced at all.

    One thing:

    the ignore when I ask how. [the should be 'then']

    I absolutley adored the last two stanzas. They were deffinitely my favorites & the last two lines of the poem, summed this up perfectly.

    Amazing job. Keep it up.
