We Scream For Tears We Cannot Cry

We Scream For Tears We Cannot Cry

A Poem by Cassidy Mask

You once told me

That

Real men

Don’t cry

 

I never saw you

Shed a tear, still I wonder

If it’s fair

To deny anyone

The act of

Crying.

 

When you went

I stood at the window

For days

I wasn’t looking for you,

I was waiting

For myself.

 

For days

The breeze knotted

My hair

While I stood there.

For days

I went missing.

 

I didn’t cry.

I didn’t shed a tear.

 

Now I’m back

And I wonder if it’s fair

To deny anyone

The act of

Crying.

 

(At night

I scream to the stars)

 

 

Still I have no tears.
