I was never a pretty cryer-like movie scenes depict
They weep beautiful tears-I weep until I am sick
I scream and curse and sob and yell
Until my head throbs and my eyes swell
I curl up under blankets-they feel friendly on my face
I nest myself in my bed-there seems to be no better place
I sniffle, and sigh and feel sorry for myself
I sneak a roll of toilet paper and leave it on my shelf
Finally I leave my nest-to see if this tree will tip
I peep out into the world-and it is as I remember it
I look in the mirror and gasp at what I see
Everything is spilling out all over me
I guess it makes sense-I wear my feelings on my face
Though I'd much rather it not be the case
I was never skilled at the trick of concealing
And so I'm cursed with everyone knowing what I'm feeling
As much as we (or maybe it's just I) fight the urge, a good crying session is often just what we need. Thanks for sharing another great write.
Aria.... Again, another Wonderful, raw and naked write...so refreshing! ! ! Graet Ink Aria.; -) Kelly.
Oh I absolutely love every single line. This is wonderful! So skilfully written. Brilliant flow! Anyone reading my comments underneath my page on here right now, go have a read!
I simply adored this piece! My favorite line: I guess it makes sense-I wear my feelings on my face Though I'd much rather it not be the case I was never skilled at the trick of concealing And so I'm cursed with everyone knowing what I'm feeling No matter how hard we might try, feelings have an annoying way of rearing there ugly head, and to answer your questions about the movies: LOTS of makeup and LOTS of editing. Lol

Aria, outstanding job. Perhaps tis because I know you and your personality but you've taken modern, simple words and turned them into complex feelings, fraught with realism and visual. I really loved the way you depicted the feeling of being exposed yet you've concealed the matter with clever wording. Excellent flow, very nice rhyming scheme. Awesome sauce broskis.
