17 years of Tears

17 YEARS OF TEARS

16 YEARS I CRIED AND NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY
HALF OF MY TEARS WAS BASE ON FUSTRATION AND DEPRESSION THAT BUILT UP ANGER TOWARDS MYSELF
THE LIFE I WAS LIVING HAD NO CHANCE OF CHANGE FOR WHAT I DREAM LIFE COULD BE
I SHED TEARS
I CRIED FOR YEARS
THINKING ABOUT HOW I COULD BECOME A BETTER ME
NOW AFTER YEARS OF BEING HURT AND TIRED OF CRYING
MY TEARS HAS BEEN DRIED OUT AND NOW I FEAR THAT I HAVE NO EMOTIONS OR CARES
NOW MY PAIN THAT I BURIED INSIDE ME REVEALS NO PAIN
I HAVE NO FEELINGS NOT EVEN FOR ME
I BURIED MY THOUGHTS, MY MIND,AND MY SOUL
I BECAME INVISIBLE AND LOST OF MY OWN BELIEF
I NOW FEEL INCOMPLETE AND MISS THE OTHER PART OF ME
I SEAT DOWN TO THINK ABOUT ALL THE PAIN I FACE DAY AND DAY AND THE PROMISE I MADE TO MYSELF
NO CRIES
NO TEARS
IT'S A WASTE OF TIME BUT NOW I REALIZE ONLY TEARS REVEAL
IT REVEALS YOU MOST INNER THOUGHTS AND CLEAR YOUR EYES TO MAKE YOU SEE WHAT HAS BEEN MISTAKEN FOR WEAKNESS
I HAD ENOUGH STRENGHT TO WIPE MY EYES BUT NOT ENOUGH TO RELEASE MY PAST
NOW TO THINK AFTER MY 1ST TEAR THEN 2ND TEAR
I HAVE NO MORE TEARS
AFTER 17 YEARS I HAVE NO MORE TEARS

I feel you! I have had my share of pain and it's worse when you run out of tears because like you said that "only tears reveal"
I just have a few typo's that I would suggest you look at. I'm not perfect either!

Base should be Based

missing the first "r" in frustration

May seat should be sit

Your poem reminds me alot of the reason why I wrote "That's Why I Write This Poem" check it out if you have time. God Bless You
