Hidden pain

Earth Allen 1991 (schenectady ny)



Tears dropping down my cheeks
Dreaming of the pain  so deep
my mind cry's in my sleep
wailing through the dreams of flowers
blossoming and the sun glooming
summer is near but when I awake
I'm covered in sweat and tears
why so much pain that gathers up in my mind
my mind fights for a positive life
where was the negative from
I couldn't sleep
what was bothering me and building up in me
my mind wondered
my heart whimpered
my eye's widened
I had a thought to myself and it was my mom

About this poem
