Find the best financial services for you at: SMARTFINANCESOLUTIONS.NET - This poem is how i have felt for a while but i never thought to put this on the poetry section...? - i am not too depression right now, but i am maddened by may current problems that are leading me slowly to bankruptcy. and i am too self conscious to get help by myself. and i do not want family to worry. one person that read this said it made them cry. i wrote this when all i could think about was the main two lines. and finally i just sat down and wrote this. i am not a poet, i do like writing and i do know how poetry works but i never used it to express myself.
Why does it have to be, I show no pain no fear?
Why does it have to be, I never shed a tear?
My mom died when I was five,
My dad drank away the pain.
I play games to hide my cries.
I eat food to hide the lies.
Why does it have to be I show no pain no fear?
Why does it have to be I never shed a tear?
I talk to “friends†like nothing is wrong,
Only to hide my sorry song.
I strive for smiles,
When none are my own.
Why does it have to be, I show no pain no fear?
Why does it have to be, I never shed a tear?
Every night I get increasingly sad,
And continuing to think that crying is bad.
I tell everyone that it is not,
I tell them all to cry a lot.
But here I am sad frown,
Like a ghost that died in her wedding gown.
Why does it have to be, I show no pain no fear?
Why does it have to be, I never shed a tear?
I have friends and I have family,
But I want that to be enough so badly.
Everyday I show no pain no fear,
Everyday I never shed a tear.
But everyday I am ashamed and sad,
Because everyday I am lonely. -
