Soft Tears

The soft, Silent Tears roll down my cheeks

Under the starless nights,  alone like the moon

They fall wishing, they wouldn't.


Just because I am strong,  doesn't mean I can't cry

Just because I fall,  doesn't mean I can't rise

But it would be good to,  have you by my side

For I hate the nights,  that these lonely tears fly


I am good and brave and strong

But still these tears fly

I couldn't stop them

Even if i tried


So, I hoped, they would take me some place

That felt as celestial 

As the pain that the first atom felt at being born

And the pain I feel as long as you are gone


The soft, Silent Tears that roll down my cheeks

I wish they would take me some place far, far away.

Hi, everyone. I wrote this poem to remember my worst memory. 

I stood in a corner crying in front of my family, hoping that one of them would take me in their arms and hold me. But the looks on their faces broke my heart. They looked at me like they were disgusted with me. Like they didn't want anything to do with me.

Like they just didn't care. 

And it broke my heart, because I needed them and they turned me away. And so, I wished that my tears, who were the only ones with me, would somehow give me same the comfort and protection that I needed from my family. 

Now, I just don't even try to hide my tears. There's no point. No one Cares.

I'm sorry there wasn't exactly anything positive to take away from this poem, but I just wanted someone to care.
