Everytime I cry

Everytime I cry

As each godforsaken tear
rolls down my face
only leaving behind
a bloody trace
these words i cannot say
fall from my tongue
memories of how
life is young.

Because everytime i cry
you'd smile at me
when i longed to fly
you'd tell me i'm free
but now there's nothing left
an empty hole
no warmth engulfs me now
the world is cold

my hands reach out to touch
a you that no longer is
you gave me a little hope
but not enough to live
i wish i could remember
the way your eyes could see
the way they would pierce through everything
and finally found me

with you, i learned to smile
with you i learned to laugh
but now you're gone forever
my happiness has past
everytime i cry
i look up at the stars
searching for you up there
wondering if you see me too, wherever you are

i don't remember how to smile
but maybe i will try
because that's the gift you gave me
everytime i'd cry
maybe i can save someone
just like you did me
because when it's all done and over
with you, i can be free.

    A simple poem yet comprises a great sad and touching meaning.. it never ended like those usual poems i've read that seems to be so hopeless (yours is kindda different) keep it up.

    You just need to add more punctuation to this piece like capitalizing the "I's" so that it looks much better and is easier to read. I loved the flow of this poem I found it to be much better then your other pieces and the emotion was really heartfelt. A nice poem you have here. Keep up the good work. ~Mel

    Wow.
    i was looking for a poem by you that wasn't sad, i wanted to see how you worked with those, eh.

    and, honestly. this is kind of sad. but, it's still amazing good. the ending, isn't sad. the rest kind of is, but not like the rest of them. [not that i don't like them. . . i love them.]

    you've done a wonderful job, once again darling.
    keep it up.
