Tears of steel

Don't cry, tears of steel
Sometimes it's better not to feel
Don't cry, wipe your eyes
Just remember all the lies
Don't cry, let it out
In a red river running down.

Don't worry, you'll be fine
Once you get to the sky
Don't worry, rest your head
You'll soon wake up with a clear head
Don't worry, get some rest
Tell yourself it was for the best.

You'll soon wake up with a clear head I just don't like the repetition it ruins it.
Don't worry, get some rest

This poem is confusing. I love it, but is the person dyeing ? Why are they sad? It left me very confused and with lots of questions. Over all its really good, the rhyming is spot on most of the time.

I loved this poem. The emotions in it practically leaped off the page. :)
The first part confused me a little bit, though. I almost got the impression that it was saying "stop crying, don't feel sad." Then, it kind of resolved itself in the second part so it made a bit more sense.
Overall, good job!! :)
If this doesn't make sense, sorry, I might just be rambling.
