watercolor thoughts [completed]

A / N : Haha, I've been so inactive on Wattpad besides reading stories. I've just been in such a writer's block, I feel like my creativity just died after reaching 1K. How ironic. haha. 

Anyway, it's been a long time. I hope my poetry doesn't disappoint you. 

Cry 

we cry 

 because there's 

too much feeling 

in us 

and there's no 

other way to let it 

out

we cry 

because we care 

too much. we cry 

because tears 

are words of the 

heart, we cry 

because heart strings

fray and snap and 

tears try to reconnect 

them together 

we cry not because

we are weak

but we are alive 

we stumble and 

suffer and fall

and get back up 

and tears is the silver 

lining of mortal lives

we cry because 

each one of us harbors

a monster in us

and that monster

runs wild

it is not evil

we cry because we

are human,

not invincible machines,

not predictable, without 

tear ducts, without gears 

and wires and computers

and simulators

we are real and we don't

make sense and tears

may be malfunctions but 

tears are the water of the soul 

we cry because our soul

speaks to our mind

that it's in pain

and pain cannot be denied

do not deny 

the screams of your

soul

we cry because

it makes us who we

are 

our body swims with 

tears and we 

live in a landscape of 

salt water 

we are strange, 

we are erratic

we harm

we maim

and we cry 

we cry not not because that's 

what we do best,

but we cry because tears 

became poetry 

and i bleed red 

we cry because we are alive

and we are human
