I hate
crying because
it never
makes a difference
wasted tears bring wasted years
and unnecessary sadness.
I was fine,
until I heard her voice...
I left, didn't respond,
and she didn't go after me.
So I'm sitting here
letting
the salt of my tears
harden my face
with unnecessary pain.

...This is a few sentences from my journal i wrote recently. I liked the way it sounded so i thought other people could read it and judge it for me.
