Sometimes you hit a low point when you want to run away.. You know it won't be easy, but it's harder if you stay.. Some morning when you wake up and you know the end is near.. You realize your eyes are full of big ol' salty tears.. It doesn't matter what you say, or even what you do.. Time and Fate have changed your mate, and you're a stranger, too.. There's no one there to share your love, or even share your fears.. No gentle hand will wipe away those big ol' salty tears.. It's hard to live in silence and not dream of being free.. There's nothing worse than looking back on how it used to be.. To the time when your young hearts had plans for future years.. You never thought you'd just be left with big ol' salty tears.. If hearts would only listen to what each other had to say.. And one would let the partner grow in their own' special way.. And if they truly listened, not just looked like they could hear.. How many eyes would cease to cry those big ol' salty tears.. Nobody has the answer--You can stay or run away.. But if you run, your ghosts will catch you down the road someday.. And if you stay, the emptiness might fill up all your years.. This indecision leaves you crying.. Big Ol' Salty Tears....... Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

"Listen to your own heart and listen to it well then listen to the silent tale that your loved ones heart will tell..." This is a wonderful write and ohhh, so true... thank you for reminding me that my love has tales as well... Until...

Sunny1, loved the rythym of your poetry, but I'm suddenly thinking of country music. Sorry. Really liked the flow of it and the emotion. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Hi Cerenity.... Ah...we share the same mind and thoughts...so we should become best of friends!!! Good to see you here! Hi Kethry.... No need to apologize!! There are a lot of cool things happening in Country today. Actually, I was thinking of a melody to put this to and get it ready for the country market......so, now I know it would fit in that genre. Thank you my friend, and for coming by, also!! Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |
