Shedding Not A Single Tear Poem by Casey Lyon

Shedding Not A Single Tear



Every year goes by…
Without me shedding a single tear
Every minute goes by…
With me wishing I could shed a tear

Oh, why can’t I shed a tear just at least once
Why me, how can my eyes be dry enough
That I can’t shed a single tear

There doesn’t go a second
When I think of crying
At the most emotional moments
But I guess I’m not that emotional

I see everyone around me shedding tears
Whilst I am not
It pains me to know I cannot cry
But what if it is for the best

What if I am not supposed to shed any tears
What if I am supposed to bring joy everywhere I go
Yeah, I like the sound of that…

Your probaly like me, Numb. 75% of the time unless im with my boyfriend. or some moments i can feel everything, all the emotions bottled up but most of the time, i can cry when i want to, my eyes just water sometimes they wont even water it could take up to a day, a week, a month for me to break down about something that someone normaly breaks down at the moment. Loved the poem, internal and external pain lies in every word: 10+
