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!
