Lily Mayfield Poet Rhyme

It's Safe To Cry In the Shower

I can show my pain
I can shed my tears
Watch it go down the drain
While exploiting my fears

My eyes so red
My throat so tight
Wishing I was dead
The urge I fight

I emerge from my tomb
Into a dim cold room
The hot steam chased away
The depression of the day

No one will ever know
What exactly I face
While standing under the flow
Of God's given grace

I can fight the tide
I'll fail when I fly
And I still have to ride
But I can still cry

Faraz Ajmal June 12, 2017 at 2:35 PM A very sad but good poem, it s natural for anyone who don t wantes the world to know, I m exactly like this, but instead of taking shower i prefer to stand infront of mirror in my washroom, or cry after going to my brd so that no one ever knew about it and no one ever knew that I cried, but it isn t good to cry too often, you do need someone to share your grief with however I m new on this site and would really appreciate if you could find time to read my poems and tell me how you feel about it
