Question:What does this poem say to you?....what does it make you think about the person who wrote it?

"His tears were once the only thing to make me cry
but lying alone
I am dying inside
Am i only destined
to relive the dreams
I've held inside
so darkened they seem
Or can I one day walk alone
And bear the brunt
of all who can't see
who weakened me with just one look
One shortened breath
that wrote a book
All about the pain and hurt
they see
All of this when they look at me."

What I see when I read this is a person crying out to have someone be with them. They are lonely and tired of being that way.

i think you should show sean the wicked irishmen what real poetry looks like. LOL

I like it. Its very sad. it sounds like he did something that was disappointing to others.

It's a very nice poem....It sounds like whoever wrote it is really sad and alone....and maybe is sick of people looking at them with pity instead of helping?

That's very nice Shannon. It kinda reminds me of my favourite band's lyrics. DAMN, it's so sad and amazing. Nice work, you really got me there. Is it yours (now, really)?
Pls, check out my question "Do you like this?" and make a comment about the poem I posted over there.
