Never Let Them See You Cry

Can’t stand all the pain,

the hearts’ pieces lost,

But I’ll show my tears not,

Regardless the cost.

 

Over and over,

the abuse never ends;

with due time given,

the wounds never mend.

 

But hurt though I may

I’ll hold in my screams,

‘Cause the trick is to never

Let the cries fall in streams.

Being a co-dependent isn't healthy at all. Value yourself more; don't scream at all. Just leave him behind. Find a real cause to die for before you are dead for no reason at all. A poet friend// RH Peat

Who is the winner if you hold in the pain and screams ? Yell and scream and others will know and when they know you will be set free . You are a very talented poetress thanks for the read Marie

Nice write, for those who care will share our tears; they'll embrace and catch them as they're shed; for those who don't no sense shedding tears for their hearts are full of dread. Time heals all wounds and wounds on heals...LOL.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
