Ocean Of Tears

0 posted 2003-10-27 11:30 AM


Voices surrounding me,
These are expressions of joy,
Yet I am sitting down below,
Writing this poem now,
Just watching...letting the moment pass me by,
Connecting and enjoying each other's presence,
A family of love,
Along with the problems this world has thrown at them,
They punch right back,
Kicking life into high gear,
Making the best and most of their time on Earth,
Remembering words of a wise uncle...
"Seize the day, seize the day,"
So I shall start,
I will start right now by crying my pains onto this paper...

Heartache and imprisoning pain,
My tears could fill a well,
Leaving no room for any tears of joy,
For there are none to shed,
Soon I will see the beauty of this ugly world,
Open my wings and fly freely,
For the sky is the limit,
One day...I will find TRUE love,
Love that will overtake me,
Love that will show me beauty and what it is to live,
One day

"Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go." -Herman Hesse
