The Watering Pot

The Watering Pot?

The watering pot is dry yet no one cares to know,
The flower has died but the signs don’t yet show,

The tears have stopped falling yet no one cares to know,
The sadness and pain inside don’t yet show,

The heart is broken into many pieces yet no one cares to know,
The anger, hurt, disappointment and turmoil don’t yet show,

The many lies that have been told yet no one cares to know,
The fear, the anxiety and betrayal caused don’t yet show,

The clock happily gives her time yet no one cares to know,
The worry of unchanging circumstances don’t yet show,

The betrayal of the friends yet no one cares to know,
The seeds of mistrust and knives don’t yet show, 

The unanswered questions yet no one cares to know,
The loss of appetite that don’t yet show,

The painful marks yet no one cares to know,
The desire for even that don’t yet show,

The watering pot is dry yet no one cares to know,
The living without voices don’t yet show.

Thanks I sometimes use the same words for the fun of it?

Thanks for the comment, appreciated?

Very creative as the end of each line is tethered by the same 7 words as the couplet before it, and the poem's depth resides in the face and mind of anyone that reads it. Well done on this.?
