 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

I Guess I Have To Go With The Flow…


I guess I have to go with the flow,
And let my pain ebb away on the tide;
For negativity isn't my way,
And I am not one to run or to hide.

Yes, I cry, of course I shed tears,
I wouldn't be human if I didn't, would I?
So I am being honest and open…
Tis usually in the dark of night that I cry!

When no-one can see my tears,
Or witness the weakness inside me,
For all that would do is worry them;
So I make sure no fear do they see!

Well, I guess that's just about changed,
Because lately I weep and cry,
The pain is great, but so is my strength!
And there is no point in questioning why.

So I wiped the negative out of me,
Threw it away on the tide;
And in future if I shed a tear,
I won't run away and try to hide.

For my tears are not a weakness!
At last I finally understand just why;
For they release the pent up hurt,
And that's the reason that I cry!

I cry out the pain and fear you see,
And let it flow away on the tide,
And in doing so, release my pain!
For no longer can my tears I hide!
