#14 Tears

This poem is about depression. Many people you know might have it, yet you'll probably never find out about it. It keeps people away when they want to be close. Anybody could get depression, it's sad how people with the biggest hearts, can get held back with such force. If you know someone that has depression, please, help them. You may be saving their lives.

Tears

by NJ Belopotosky

Laughing.
Laughing.
At my jokes.
Screaming.
Crying.
Inside of me.
Having
fun,
with my friends.
Streams of tears
drip down my
heart.
I smile,
when I
see
you.
You smile,
when you
see
me.
I
bleed,
when I
see
you.
You smile,
when you
see
me.
Screaming.
Crying.
Inside.
Laughing.
Smiling.
I
wave
to
you.

insightful poem

I love that you used a mor unusual style to write it, it really captured the sense of having both the screaming and the laughing going on at the same time. I love this.

The poem seems simple, but It may have taken youa while to write. When ever I try to write a poem they take me 10 minutes- 1 week. The simpler the poems are for me the harder they are to write. This poem was really good.
