"And I Break"

by Max Phineas

So much I need to tell you
So little I can say
Today,
Tomorrow
blend into eternity.

I'll probably keep smiling
Until the end
'Til I'm alone.
But how I want to cry!
I'm no good with words
So I need to show you with a tear.
But I'll probably keep smiling
'Til I'm alone.

And I break down.

This is a poem so succint; yet is says so much more than we expect on first sight. Beautifully done.

Max, just wandering around through pps, and the past potds. I came upon your poem and thought I'd read it. You express something so many of us feel, the lack of being able to express our feelings and emotions to others - the incompleteness of our words and actions - our inability to be bold in the moment, if we need be. I've been in this situation a number of times, but have hidden what I wanted to say, breaking down crying or (raging) emotionally in the privacy of my apartment. You've said it so well. A bit late, but congratulations on potd. ;~Q ~Chelle~
