No more tears

Crying is a part of life
But what happens when theres no more might
When tears want to come and wish you had some
But theres no more to give
And you want to be happy
And you want to be cheerful
But theres nothing to live for
So you try and try to let them out
But your eyes will do nothing more but pout
Where have all my tears gone
Are they like rain scattered on the lawn
Are they in the trash, or in the mirror, if so my reflection lies
But all i need is to cry
One tear of salt, then i won’t feel like this whole things my fault

Good poem. IMHO , this is a poem that could be given more depth with moderistic spacing, similar to ee cummings’ i have found what you are like
@ mighty joe… “nugget face but mouth turd eater head” That’s an amazing line, I’m going to have to use it on my girlfriend. :P

when the author was five i made her memorize where the side walk ends(the book not the poem) so she could recite when the cable went out

so far that’s one of the best uses for offspring i’ve heard , you should’ve taught her the raven and “who’s on first” while you were at it

No slight to the author, i doubt she remembers me cuzs she was a toddler and i was just one of her dad’s crazy ass friends, but , eden it’s incredible that yopu are now clearly such an eloquent young woman-also this makes me feel OLDER THAN DIRT - but whatever you’re awesome

but now i’ve found what i want in life, and that feeling is gone =)
