The emotional expression of my storm
I Cried by originalgentleman
5-7-5 Poetry contest entry

I closed my eyes to
keep this river inside,
but unable to control it
they opened and I cried.

So strong I am still
unable to close this dam,
releasing pouring teardrops expressing
emotionally who I am.

Reach out and touch
me embrace my pride,
take a trip down this waterfall
find out why I cried.

Unable to explain
this emotional rain,
pouring downward to my heart
like an out of control train.

Bumping and bouncing
creating havoc inside,
gave me somewhat of an
idea of why I cried.

But now I sat with
my river all dried,
understanding after the storm
just why I cried.

Author Notes
As a man I can be strong and still be emotional.
