Sometimes..

Sometimes you have to cry and tear up just to clear your blurry eyes..

 

Sometimes you have to fall apart

To know what remains inside

Sometimes you have to cry and tear up

To clear your blurry eyes

Sometimes you need to cut

Just to know you can feel the pain

Sometimes you need to bleed

Just to keep yourself sane

Sometimes you have to hide

Just to make your life disappear

But then sometimes you have tear yourself apart

Just so you can no longer hide

Sometimes you have to cry

To quench your thirsty scars

The scars that consume your soul

Only to be seen in you're teary bloodshot eyes….

Wow!! That was so good. A brand new concept for me put so effectively into words. Man! I need to read it again....
*After some time*
Now, I've read it once more. But still I'm at a loss of word to appreciate it. I can't seem to come up with new words, so I'll repeat the same old ones that I use everytime...
AWESOME!! MARVELLOUS!! WELL - PENNED!! GREAT WRITE!!
I love the rhyme. Gives the poem a unique lyric like feeling. It can be turned into a song if you ask me...
Very well done!!

I can really feel the tension, the despair. I'm so sorry that things like this have to happen to you. Life is so unfair sometimes, isn't it?

this is so beautifully written, and deep.
My favorite line is:
"Sometimes you have to fall apart

To know what remains inside

Sometimes you have to cry and tear up

To clear your blurry eyes"

I really like this one.

honest, brutal, frightening in the truth. you've out done your self bou-chan. i get the line, its not always fun ne.

So beautifully spoken. Emotionally gripping, delving into the world that lies beneath the barren, stagnant place of the mind. You journey ever so cautiously into the soul where we must go to truly find restoration and peace. Perfection.

I would never in all my days, want anyone to feel what you must have felt!
I'm glad that you have become a much stronger person through all of this. It goes down in history as a learning lesson from the pits of doom.

Thanks for sharing this. It's speaks a truth about many people, hopefully your words can keep others from having to go through it!

Great Write! :)

0.0 wow i've felt that way before but never really gone so far as to actually do it. that was deep, honestly. i actually feel like it made sense. you're convincing ^-^

Wouldn't pinching be just as good as cutting? seems a tinsy bit drastic. I can relate to the tearing up, letting them fall so that it can clense and refresh the soul. Inabling a person to contemplate and resolve the deeper and sometimes forgotten internal pains.

But why bleed? I understand that it can be found at any blood bank and in hospitals, and more supplied if your levels are low in times of crisis. Yet, to let it out voluntarily is something i simply can't grasp! Seems like waisting of ones life's essence.

This poem, was writen to flow and bring forth your images clearly. It has, which is commendable.

I don't want to seem harsh, but the theme was, to me, quite disturbing.
