I give up.I'm tired of crying.
I've had it with wearing this mask that is hiding.
These feelings inside that scratch hard to be free.
The pain, the sorrow, the anger, the grief.

I'm tired of caring if you understand.
I'm tired of dancing, can't keep up with this band.

Circles and colors of forgiveness and grace.
Are whispers of lines that are etched on my face.

These tears I keep crying all have their own name.
Belonging to others who play lives like a game.

Taking away pride, ambition, and place.
I want to reclaim all I am that is great.

OK
I give up.I'm tired of crying.
I've had it with wearing this mask that is hiding.
These feelings inside that scratch hard to be free.
The pain, the sorrow, the anger, the grief.

I'm tired of caring if you understand.
I'm tired of dancing, can't keep up with this band.

Circles and colors of forgiveness and grace.
Are whispers of lines that are etched on my face.

These tears I keep crying all have their own name.
Belonging to others who play lives like a game.

Taking away pride, ambition, and place.
I want to reclaim all I am that is great.

This poem portrays so much, I really do understand your words, I know how this feels, I feel like this on a daily basis, your ideas are very much like mine, I enjoy poems like yours where I can actually say to myself, "Wow, ya know, there are other freaks out there like me" I mean that in the nicest way though, Anyway great write, thanks for sharing .

This poem reminds me of song;

"I've got me myself and i
that's what I got
in the end, that's what i found out
and it ain't no need to cry
I took a vow
that from now on
I'm gonna be my own best friend"

While I do not totally agree with these words there is some truth in them. Sometimes the only one you can count on is you ( and God). In the end that is what it boils down to.

Well I think it is a good write, You should get up, wipe the tears, and keep going.! Dont look back. Know that YOU are all that is needed.! You dont need ones who put you in pain, or suffering.!

Those last two lines spoke out especially, I think. Meaningful.

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing. I love this poem soo much. "I'm tired of dancing, can't keep up with this band." I am obsessed with this particular line, bc it is beautifully written, and just plain awesome in terms of expression. I love that the person in the poem has decided to give up pleasing others, and work on herself for a change. Awesome!
