Rivers of Tears ~~Daniel J D~~ Standing alone, in deep emotions No sounds penetrate my frustrations Long days and nights of lamentations The tears I shed obtained no opinions Every step I took was from a puddle Of tears, as I headed from the jungle Of pains, and heartache and many a puzzle Out of view, deep upon a river I stumble The river bears our names The craziness of love's games Ending in a river of tears Flowing out to the ocean of fears Into the depths of despairs Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

Oh, this is covetously sad...it yearns for a new beginning...and I hope you find it...for to write like this imparts such a wondrous heart... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

JD~ I was caught in the current of your tears. Sometimes it is a babbling brook sometimes a stream that my tears took sometimes a waterfall cascading I navigate this river - sometimes raging Upon it's currents I am tossed reaching an ocean of emotion where I am lost upon the waves of deep despair tossed on the shore and just left there Slammed again at tides return thinking that someday I will learn The river of tears will always flow where my memories want me to go I hope I discover how to break free before this river of tears drowns me until then .... I'm treading memories *JD~ Thanks for this little spark of inspiration. *Heart-Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

I enjoyed this one. Very deep! My favorite lines "The river bears our names The craziness of love's games Ending in a river of tears Flowing out to the ocean of fears Into the depths of despairs" Very moving and touching poem! Keep up the great work (Art)! Have a wonderful day. |

Victoria, and Sunshine, Apologies for the late reply. The emotions of loneliness is daunting, and when the river of tears run dry, the search for a new beginning demands strength. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

Daniel* This piece struck a familiar cord that I couldn't pull away from if I tried...the current of this river is filled with the pain that so many loves end in...hand in hand...like the rivers flowing to the seas...Excellent writing~ You cannot dance in the sun until you have cried in the rain~ |

Daniel, Now I know why Marge was inspired so much. This was an excellent read and I am sure most of us can relate to it. I know that I can. Wonderfully written. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |
