I Never Thought I Could Cry

Contributed by yackerz85 on Thursday, 22nd June 2006 @ 11:33:38 AM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry



My eyes are a desert dry and hard.
No water flows from this parched place.
My face is grim, battered and scarred
Emotions are invisible on my face.
Iron is soft compared to me.
and tears would make me rust.
That is why I never cry,
so I won't decombust.

Sometimes I think my heart is ice.
and my whole body is frozen solid.
Like a piece of steel wedged in a vise,
my heart is completely stolid.
You, I pity, because you own my heart.
This piece of cold hard steel you own.
You can only bend me so far before I break apart.
Even then, I wouldn't even groan.

Yet, you seem to get under my coat of lead
and into my soft exposed interior
Emotions are uncovered that I thought were dead.
You tought me how to laugh, cry, and not feel inferior.

I never thought I could cry.
I never thought that these tears would fall.
but for you I'd cry until I'd die.
For you, I would do it all.
