I Take Back My Tears MAG
I take back my tears
the wasted years
I spent crying
for what never could happen
I take back my heart
my shattered heart
Up off the ground
and back in my arms
I take back my hope
wasted on you
and toss it aside
for it has no meaning now
Nothing you say
no words
no songs
can heal the bleeding wound
That you opened again and again
I walk a free woman
held by nothing of yours
and fly away free
as free as the wind

i really like this! 5 stars!
but you rhyme tears and years and then heart with heart and it doesnt sound quite right...its the only time something is rhymed with itself and there are plenty of words that rhyme with heart and i think if you used one it might sound better. but still: good poem!
i love this! its really well written and its really easy to see where your coming from.
