The Guy Who Cried A Tear

I knew a girl who hid her pain and all her thoughts inside,

She never thought they’d understand so her feelings she continued to hide.

She truly believed that she was alone and had no real friends,

Everytime someone would say they’ll stop they did it again and again

Broken promises and emptiness inside were driving her to the edge

Bit by bit she was falling apart, going crazy; but only inside her head.

She hid it well and no one knew she was a master of disguise,

Her so called “friends” never suspected a thing cuz she was so happy, on the outside.

Things got worse and she knew it was time, time for this all to end,

She would never be alone, never feel empty, never be sad again.

As she stood and thought about wut would be of the life she would leave behind,

She could think of no reason to go on with it except for this one guy.

Her only real love who hadn’t a clue of wut was about to occur.

But what would it matter he would do nothing he cared not for her.

So she went on and did what she did and now she isn’t here,

But she will always be remembered by the only person, the guy who cried a tear.

Michael, I told myself long ago that I would never love a man that coouldn't cry.
The woman you wrote of is gone, but the tear will live forever, letting all know that her soul is still here.
A very well written poem.
