Tears Poem by Kasi Navadomskis

I did not cry for him
'it' seemed before my time
i did not cry for them
too far away in the back of my mind
I did not cry for that boy
even though i thought he was really mine
I did not cry for Chris
By then it all seemed fine
But i poured my heart right through my eyes
the day matt left without saying goodbye
The tears they feel for my sudden loss
and my heart was on the line
my head fell quick into my hands
for me, i broke down and cried.
my eyes stayed glossy to a slowly fading image
watching his figure disappear possibly for good
but what shook my body up the most,
what made it hard to breath,
what bolted my stomach down
and wouldnt lat me leave
what made me thing so much of this special guy
and try to emapthize
was the fright, the fear, the look of death, in my very own eyes
as i now sit here and cry
i feel like maybe just maybe there's still a bit of hope for me deep inside.
