TEARS OF THE NIGHT In nights of slumber A soul does not rest Upon tears etched in pillow A heart does confess Of love once had and now is gone Yearning for answers where she belongs Come early sunrise a smile does shine Hidden behind tears of night.

Coco.... Are you hiding somewhere in my space?? You just wrote my feelings, and did a great job of it too. (You can come out of my closet now!!!) Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

~Wow Coco,...your words come sad yet soft at the same time. Wonderfully written expression. A sort of window here. Take care now. *Peace. |

Oh Cocibaci, wonderfully written piece, draped in sadness, loved the poem. "Think I'm - I'm lost among the undergrowth So much so I woke up I love you all the same" Manic street preachers You stole the sun from my heart. |

Incredible writing! I really like this poem. Thanks for sharing. Here's one for you. ____________________________ The morning dew dries with tears A heart still but pumps the years Voice speaks in mind of missed Of sweet love once kissed More nights that end with dew But still I smile thinking of you The phone rings with you in mind Now endless tears are left behind ____________________________ |

So many tears of the night.. so many smiles it takes to cover them... this is lovely, my friend...the candor in this piece is striking. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
