Big Girls Don't Cry

by Sweet Fragility   Nov 18, 2007


"Pull yourself together," they say, "He's long done with you."
"Stop thinking of might-have-beens; and stop feeling blue."

"Pull yourself together," they advise, "It's gonna be okay."
"Its time to wipe your tears away, and face another day."

"Pull yourself together," they declare, "Try to live past the pain."
"Someday you might see a light shining through the rain."

"Pull yourself together," they state, "And feel the sun's rays."
"Don't live life in a daze; look towards the skies and better days."

"Pull yourself together," they reason, "You'll be able to get by."
"Remember that big girls don't cry; it was time to say goodbye."

* By the way, if this seems...rusty? it's because I have had writer's block for the past couple weeks.

    Wow I could relate with everything you said here. I loved the style in which you decided to write, it was effective and meaningful. The flow was flawless and the rhymes did not seemed forced which was just great. Beautifully done. *5/5*

    The poem is really nice...
    i find it a bit long, though... it could be a little shorter to have a better rythm...(small suggestion...=D)
    it is a poem filled with hope for better days...
    but i still wonder...
    isn't that just too easy to say?
    and sometimes...impossible to do?

    a great poem, anyway
    5/5

    *keep going*

    I liked this poem alot, and i've read your poems before I know you have major talent. Sucks that you've been suffering from writers block to me it is a little obvious just because i've read alot of your work before. One thing I think you should try and do is expand on your rhyme. You have a perfect flow with it. I just think if you added some stronger and powerful words it would add more emotion. But that is just my personal opinion. Definitly a 5/5 though for this piece. It was great none the less. ~mel
