Click hereDon't let the sun catch you crying
It's something you hear
Finding the time for tears, when do you?
When you are alone in your bedroom?
When you are alone in your bathtub?
When you are alone when you sit in front of the fireplace?
Tears will come down on me, I can't stop their progression
I can't slow them, at times I don't want to slow them
Pain will slice your very soul, words will kill.
Looking out at the tree tops, frigid wind slicing
Just outside.
Don't tell me to not cry, I'm a woman it's my right.
Cleansing tears, angry tears, happy tears
I'm a woman accept them
Emerald eyes glistening from tears yet to fall.
Pull me to you I'm not ready to share
Quietly be there
Wintery icy blast as the door opens
Don't follow after all I might cry
When I come back
I will be wanting you, emerald eyes clear.
and I agree with Saldne about the question marks...somewhat disruptive of the flow. Still, a mini-masterpiece, and I feel better after reading it.
this poem's power is awesome A~
the tears of happy sad etc.
from emerald eyes, I see a great
poet sharing her style with us and
thank you for the A~
dispite the verbal lashings from the
grammar police before, I don't see them now
your poem shines and I very ,much enjoyed it~
Don't follow after all I might cry
When I come back
I will be wanting you, emerald eyes clear.
(That is SOME ending!)
I definitely enjoyed this. It hit home for me.
I think what was a little distracting in this piece was the second stanza with the question marks...and it almost felt unfinished in that particular area. Other than that, excellent work! Thanks for the read.
Hugs, saldne
