you don't understand

Contributed by gery_giggles on Saturday, 28th June 2003 @ 09:05:00 AM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



the hurtful tears sting my eyes,
i go on home to my twisted world.
no one around to hold me tight,
i turn to the love of my teddy bear,
he dries my tears and says it will be alright.
the walls all around me hold sad secrets,
they keep them well.
no happy memories of a childhood to help,
i never knew the laughter,
never knew the smiles.
i live everyday in a lie.
my friends never ask,
they know better than that.
to afriad to love,
or even trust.
i show no weakness,
i am strong.
my pathetic little lies,
to hide my real life,
will only last so long.
day by day i hurt knowing i am alone,
i hate it when they all say they understand,
'cause they don't
they know the story,
they have heard it before.
but they don't know the pain i feel deep inside.

I am much older than you but I have memories of my childhood living with an alcoholic father. You do not have to be alone and you can only be strong for so long. If you need to talk you can pm me

An unusual poem because tho it is sad,
there is a sweetness about it rather than
bitterness. It seems to me, you have a built
in happy soul to counter the hurt.

self pity can make anyone cry
we all have varying capacities for pain
we do not understand our own let alone anothers.
I agree with Norm something sweet about you
so start playing and be the child you never were
what's stopping you, it is your life, your choosing.

your r right in saying i did build a happy soul to counter the pain but what everyone sees and hears is only the outside of me, but i never let the pain get the beter of me so i stay happy and it sorta helps.
