The Tears I Cry Are Not For You Poem by Hope Elizabeth

The Tears I Cry Are Not For You



The tears I cry are not for you
The tears I cry are for me and only me
The tears I cry are always blue
The tears that I won't let you, so you cannot see
The tears I cry are not for you
At times though they may seem to be
The tears I cry are the result of an infliction of pain
The pain so unbearable, waters come pouring down out of my eyes
The tears I cry can be or cannot be tame
But the tears I cry are not for you
They're for me, and me only

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Adeline Foster 28 June 2010

Very well stated an a good poem. However it is marred by a double word in the eighth line and perhaps it could benefit with a comma after 'cannot' in the fourth line. Adeline
