This is a poem of how I deal with being sick and how my family view me being sick.
Hi everyone this is my updated version of this poem. The old version is below.


Drown in Tears

I cry when I know that pain has become my shadow,
A constant reminder of an enemy I battle,
I cry when I know that misery resides inside of me,
If only I could drown my tears deep in the blue sea!
Although I know if I showed you this side of my soul,
You would want to rescue me,
This way, I hide all of my anguish from the world,
So you can see me happy and free.











old version



Drown in Tears

I cry when I know that pain has become my shadow,
A constant reminder of an enemy I battle,
I cry when I know that misery resides inside of me,
If only I could drown my tears this might comfort those who see,
Although I know if I showed you this side of me
You would drown with me.
