Cry Quietly In A Corner Poem by Candy Simpson

Cry quietly in a corner
Don't make a big scene
Don't let anyone think something's wrong
Remember not to be mean

Cry quietly in a corner
Don't drown anyone in your sorrow
You only have to live through today
You can dread tomorrow

Cry quietly in a corner
Shield yourself from the world
For all they know you just like to cause trouble
Just a moody little girl

Cry quietly in a corner
Don't let them see your pain
What's the most that they can do, help?
But what from that can you gain?

Cry quietly in a corner
they’ll never know what's wrong
when you think about telling
you think no, I am strong

Cry quietly in a corner
Like the whiner they think you are
Like they care about the reason
How did it get this far?
