If You Wipe My Tears Away

I'm standing here beyond your reach



Where you can never be



I've built a wall between us



To keep you away from me



You never seem to recognize



That my heart breaks with every cry



Because these feelings I have are hidden



I keep them deep inside



The farther I push myself away



The emptier I feel



As if something is missing inside me



I almost don't believe I'm real



I've built this wall with tears and pain



I thought it was too strong to be destroyed



But if you wipe my tears away with love



It will help to fill this void



The emptiness will soon be gone



And my wall will begin to fade



The pain will ease up on my heart



If you wipe my tears away...

Great and so true to life. A powerful poem, that should be put to music, so that all could relate to it. You have talent to write, I just hope that it doesn't take a broken heart to write with such caliber.
