"I know I've been in love. but I waited a long time before I said the word "love" to someone even though I'd been thinking it, because I consider "love" to be more than just a word." - Nick Jonas

Fresh Tears are wet raindrops
Falling gently, peacefully like dancing leaves
Within, wailing pain is released--
Pools of Anguish and Isolation form

Menacing clouds inside my being--
Amount to crystal drops all are seeing
Dry tears of Apathy are wet with sorrow
Through storms and rain come shine, leading to brighter tomorrows

Emily Dickinson's writing style influenced me to write this poem and use some of her techniques.
