There are times when the tears keep falling,
like the entire ocean is pouring down my face.
And there are times when the tears won't come,
eyelids tired of trying to cry, eyes sore from effort.
Why is it when you least want it, the tears won't stop
but when you want to cry, all you get is an empty feeling.
For some reason there are times when crying helps me
get away from everything and helps let it all out of me.
But there are the times when my tears betray me, as
hard as I try and conceal them, the more they fall.
They let the world know of my inner feelings and
the tears that once helped me, now just make it worse.
But there's always something that helps the tears, whether
they fall or not, when I write, I always feel a lot better.
So that's why I am writing, so the tears won't fall, and
instead of water pouring, my words are pouring down.
Though this post may seem meaningless to most people,
it has helped me overcome yet another obstacle in my life.
And I know this writing can help me feel better, and unlike
my tears, I hope my words on paper won't ever betray me.

Writing helps me, too, when I'm frustrated or feeling despondent.
Some people say a good book is the cure. But being on the other side of the pen and paper isn't too bad, either.
