Get past my barriers,
Tear me apart,
Show the world, that I'm a mess,
Of insecurities at heart.

Let them know my secrets,
Every lie I've told,
Don't forget that "I'm okay"
I know that line's getting old.

Show them all my memories,
Drown them in my past,
The beginning was so long ago,
The ends approaching fast.

Teach them how to fake a smile,
And blink away the tears,
An art I've had to master,
To get through these past years.

There's good that comes from crying,
There's happiness in grief,
There's beauty in a breakdown,
When a breakdowns a relief.
this has been sitting in my notebook for nearly a year. Yeah I know it's a bit melodramatic ^^''

One of my best friends just died six days ago, and I cannot explain how much this struck so close to my heart:
There's good that comes from crying,
There's happiness in grief,
There's beauty in a breakdown,
When a breakdowns a relief.

That is so beautiful, so elegant, and so true. There is a beauty in the breakdown. It brought me peace. <3 I love this poem, wonderful job!
