Hold it in
Afraid to bother anyone
Keep it in
Hoping the pain will soon be gone
So i held it
But found its way out my eyes,
I kept it
But not the whimpers and the cries
To hold it i tried
But my mind is now breaking,
Did my best to hide
But can't keep my heart from bursting
So my pen did the crying
When my eyes could not
It poured what I've been keeping
In scribbles and in blot
It expressed my pain
Like the tears on my pillow
Pouring like rain
In ink, that no one else know
On a sheet of paper
I laid pieces of my heart
Rearranging them together
Into a simple piece of art
Hoping this will be the start
I wrote to No one
- the cries of this aching heart.
Hoping . . .

A poem i wrote in a competition (but ended up losing) with the the of how writing poems helped me.
Thanks Joya for the help in the awesome title
And writing did not help, the irony. But it did become my way of expressing these emotions my hearts bursts with.
