humans cry

Folder: 
my poems

don't do it
don't let those tears fall
you know better than to show emotions
it doesn't get you anywhere
and it never will
no body gets ahead by crying or laughing
people say if you cry if your human
but if i have to cry to be human
then i don't wanna be human
i'll be anything else
i want to be a hollow shell
i wanna be an emotionless being
and if i can't be that
then i don't wanna be alive
i don't wanna deal with this anymore
everyone keeps saying that it will get better
everything will be ok
but it won't be fine
nothing will ever be ok again
not after everything i've been through
i may learn to make it seem like everything is fine
but on the inside i will always have the scars
i will always be different and nothing can change it
so i'll just tell them that it's ok
i'll tell them that i'm fine
even though i know
that i'm dying inside
