As quick as it all started
The tears are gone yet again
Leaving my face bloated
And the color of a rose

As much as I try
Make up covers nothing
It merely hides
What had just happened

I decide ice could work
Holding it to my face
Like I'm some sort of freak
But it does nothing

Only time will make it disappear
But when that time comes
It just makes itself known
Yet again

You can hide all you want
But it will eventually
Catch up with you
And run you over

Like you were some sort of
Stupid animal crossing
Down a road
Which you should have never came.
For some reason, poetry comes best to me when I am depressed. XD I actually really like this...tell me what you think please and thank yoouu.

You've captured a feeling many girls and guys feel in relationships that don't work out for one reason or another. The depth of the feeling is shown through simple words and phrases that people use in everyday language, making it easier for all readers to relate to.

One suggestion: (Suggestion will be in all capitals for notability)

"As much as I try
Make up covers nothing"

---> Make up: the action two people take to resolve an issue vs. Makeup: commercially produced covering agents that can safely be used on people's faces.

I think you meant:

"As much as I try
MAKEUP covers nothing."

Great Poem
