Silent Tear

A silent tear comes and goes, the reason behind it, no one knows. Wondering why I shed this tear, the reason behind it, I deny in fear. Fear because I try to hide the feelings that I feel inside. Because I know you don't feel the same, I hide these feelings so they stay tame.

This is beautifully written! I think everyone can relate is why is feels so powerful and just drew me in. I can almost see gorgeous woman with two milky tears fallings. I love the hidden meaning of the complex nature of love. If you cry out loud then not only will everyone else know the reason, but you have to accept that its real and it hurts...instead you chose to be silent out of fear of your own emotions for someone which is scary, sad, and beautiful that you have felt this emotion. GREAT!

Sweet sad poetry Cheyenne, sometimes it's good to cry out loud and release the inner tension >> James

sometimes crying will help you let go. Hanging on only hurts you. Light 7 Love

well written. i think we've all shared a similar feeling and experience, unfortunately. i am right now! but the other person could be doing the exact same thing as you, y'know? things may seem perfect for them, but you never know what may be going through their head as well. there's always somebody ready to listen!

I sense what you say, i think it's best not to hide feelings... people are ready to listen... all you have to do is confide, don't keep your feeling bottled up, enjoyed
