Tears Are a Waste

Tear's are a Waste

Tear's are a waste
and most often miss placed 
On there intended victim
Because there victim is you
There the accelerator to your glue
You see if they are not spent on a loved one
They are like broken cookie's at the bottom of the tin
That are destined to be thrown in the bin
I hope in the future,  no more tear's you do waste
On people they do not deserve to be placed

good message, don't cry for people who do not deserve your sympathy. Well, I do not even look at those "numbers" Christopher. I think they are not giving us an accurate look at the real picture. Many times I will click on a poet's poem, again and again, becuase I forget if I saw it already. Each time we click on a poem and realize "oh, I already saw or commented" then that gets recorded as a "view" So that is why I don't take stock in those numbers, Thanks for telling me what you meant!
