It does me no good to cry tears well eyes shine I would let it fall but they refuse no time no way no how not today just as I feel the bite the quick sting of tears then a string of resolve nips my back stand straighter take the flack but if oh if I could cry just today would come to play rainbows in my eyes in the crystalline guise of tears mesmerized and I would then smile at the fact of me the lack of me walking the eggshell walk in performance of the silent talk for I shall always know that in my tears I see only in rainbow Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

I like the way you wrote this...made me think about times when I could not cry...I wanted to but I couldn't...and I would be thinking "why can't I cry". But soon enough the tears would flow and they always help to soothe the soul...James |

Oh,this was perfect! I found it to be so well written and I'm sure many can relate. Thanks ![]() Sauni Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |

Our hearts seems to be laying in familiar paths of late...your poetry is playing every cord of my heart...this is so tender and soft...filled with the message that is etched within my own life...the need for that cleansing is so deep at times...but the promise to keep them in is stronger. Exquisite weaving from your heart to mine~ You cannot dance in the sun until you have cried in the rain~ |
