Verbal Tears Surrendering to the softness of memories, old conversations between he and I, iced the bruising that remains from the graffiti-like spraying received undeservedly, those final moments. Like my Father's death, there will be another grieving, my forgiveness in its wake, though receiving none in return. No stone to revisit, no coldness to be warmed by my touch. No reality remains, except for the walling of my existence by falsehoods, when a heart, neither jealous nor envious, but in need of attention, received instead, intolerance. Words, replace the "verbal tears", the coldness last felt by a heart, in its now, silent world. *thank you jwesley for the "verbal tears" "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

Too wonderfully penned. One thing that really impressed me was the fact that the word "tears" could be pronounced both ways and be powerful in both. Glad jwesley inspired you. This is a super piece! Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Victoria..yes sometimes a response or a word or a title touches me and inspires me to write even when I don't wish to.*s Lia..I am a hypersensitive indivual, highly emotional but it evens out, when I am happy I am super delightful *w thank you ((hugs)) M Barry..I am a bundle of feelings, ribbon wrapped, waiting for the happy feelings to be released. VAS...(hugs) and thanks *s I often see a word or phrase that fits my mood that moment and is perfect for completing my poem. And Inever thought of tears both ways..hmmm Sandra...some say we make our own pain that no one else can do it to us..I am not sure whether it is true or not. Thinking of you moon sister ((hugs)) M BluesSerenade, sometimes I don't know where the words come from..thank you *s Maureen "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Maureen - Truly a very sad and emotive write. I don't know how you have trouble interpreting poems when you can write like this.  Dave |

I could really FEEL that one, Maureen. Words, replace the "verbal tears", the coldness last felt by a heart, in its now, silent world. How very beautiful  copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

Dave, sometimes I will write sad and in the next moment my mood will change, that's the drawback of being a Moonchild (cancer). I thank you for the comment about my writing..but my understanding is limited sometimes by my experiences in life and they really have been not as worldly as many on here probably have had. So I can only base my understanding on that for now until my own world opens a bit more. *I am working on that. Thanks again. Lyra, the verbal tears was a phrase expressed by jwesley in a response to his poem of fallen angels. It touched me in a different manner but I wanted to use it in my poem of misunderstanding. I hope he enjoyed it's usage. hugs M * I still would like to do a poem with you someday...*s |
