I have to give you a "6" -- what you wrote pulled me in and I was right there with you. I love the varied ways you described crying and my favorite lines were, "bumping and bouncing creating havoc inside." I think many readers will relate to that feeling although most of us couldn't quite put it in words. Bravo! I am a fan.

Your poem has great rhyme and flow. That it is not a 5/7/5 is not the point. I see this was posted in 2012, so nothing more needs to be said about the format for that contest long time over.
I like the message of your poem. It makes me believe that there was a definite moment that caused the tears and the person in the poem explored that after the initial tears that flowed had stopped.
Good job and thanks for sharing.

Tears are the release of emotional pain. No meds can cure emotional pain it has to be washed away.
It is braver to cry than to stem the flow
Your words are set with feeling and touched me deeply

Hello to you originalgentleman
May I make a comment your poem to me is not a 5-7-5 poem
But I must say it's a poem that indeed was well worth reading.
How it's good to have a man cry and show his emontions.

Really nice! And I agree, as a man you can be both strong AND emotional. I think when we feel emotion this strongly it is easy for the tears to begin to flow for one reason, and then have that reason change all together. I liked the realization and the end of what caused the river of tears.
Great job!

I like the poem very much. However, this is by no means a 5-7-5 as you have it listed. A 5-7-5 has five syllables in the first and last and seven in the middle.

Don't get why guys think it is wrong to cry. It is good thing. This reminds me of that Adele song I set fire to the rain. pouring downward to my heart like an out of control train is my favorite line

Welcome to FanStory--I hope the site fulfills your goals for membership. I am glad that you can express your emotions and share them with us in your poetry. (My only confusion is that I see your stanzas as rhyming quatrains, but the top note labels the post a 5-7-5 entry.) I admired your "river/dam/waterfall/storm" metaphors as well. -Joan
