Love Poem: Tears

Tears

If you don't feel sorry for yourself
then who is there to feel your pain?
trying to be in someone else's shoes
never really feels quite the same

the affect and sentiment in truth
fits you only like your name
so who would care
when you despair
with just yourself to blame

a shame to have emotions
that press to take their toll
to let the flood gates open
when you have lost control

tears a release of pressure
too much inside to hold
like old regrets 
that rise from depths 
until the heart turns cold.
