No more tears to cry |

I have no tears left to cry, for a love that's gone astray; The wells within my soul have dried, Self-pity has gone away. It's time to live, and love again, to open up my heart; To let new love enter in, a time for a new start. No more wallowing in despair, no wakeful nights to greet; For someone waits for me out there, another love I'll meet. One whose heart is just like mine, hoping to find true love; A love to last for all time, Blessed by God above. To share the joys that life does hold, let memories be born; And cuddle with when nights are cold, come chilly winter morn. There's a freedom that I've found, I've never felt before; As weighted burdens leave me now, it's gone forever more. For, I have no more tears to cry, for a love that's gone astray; I've let it go, I bid good-bye, The pain has gone away. |

Doesn't the act of letting your felings spill out onto paper have an incredible cleansing effect? Your poem was lovely Jenna and I enjoyed reading it. David2 |

I love this poem. Not too long ago I went through the same metamorphosis. It is really a life changing experience. Welcome to Passions, Jenna! Hope to see more of your work. Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |

Bravo~ Bravo~ Your poem of endurance is beautiful~ May you never have those tears to cry again~ Marie~ "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind." The Bard |
