This is a new poem by Matthew D. Ward - his first one posted in a while. - poetheart 10/22/01
I cry
Often for no reason at all
Just an emptiness inside
Awaiting the fall
Awake in the morning
Smile on my face
Frowning and depressed
By the end of the day
Cold stares surround me
From them I can't hide
So I retreat into my pain
Locking myself inside
