Community of teardrops
stirring in a pool
fallen from the eyes of
each savant and fool

Chilling to the touch
but at the core is warm
the newest tears are icy cold
the elder ones reform

This pool is not for me
the one who never cries
the river of my tears runs warm
and comes not from my eyes

(wrote it in Psychology class... just a thought that was bothering me...)

It's amazing what can come to you in class, isn't it?  

I'm really sorry that you feel that you can't cry. Tears are the greatest relase, male or female. I hope that you let the tears flow freely from now on! Wonderful work!

LoveBug has a point but some people dont cry..
Once in a while its alright to let them flow.
I really liked this one.. I guess psychology must be boring? Well write one in math because I know theres a lot of time to spare there!
nice job.

This was a nice one Allan, not as good as your others but hey......it's better than a lot of poems I read most of the time. Nice one here.

Very interesting poem Allan
And I'm gonna have to agree with LuvyBuggy too
But i do actually see some other thing to your thoughts of crying somewhere else
Crying is actually from the heart...we all cry from the heart, and tears is only a biproduct of it...hmmm i might not even be making any sense
no matter what, i think you are very talented adn once again you've amazed me with you writing
keep it up
