AND HELP THE SOUL THAT CRIES

Smiling through the pain.

AND HELP THE SOUL THAT CRIES
 

Should I be forceful with my words, Please do not be alarmed. Some words are meant to offer you... A look behind the 'charm.' When burdened with a deep despair, Ones' thoughts are not obliged... To be what you'd expect of them, Beneath a smile that hides. Please be not quick to judge or scoff... You may not know the pain, That lives within the heart of one Whose life has aught to gain. When dreams are buried 'neath the sod And hope cannot arise, Go gentle into that dark night..... And help the soul that cries. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>> By MissSharon

souls cry....hearts ache....and others judge, not having been in the situation...but those who scoff have no understanding of what is like to be suffering inside...you capture that feeling so well here, Sharon.
Dreams get buried...but with enough self love and confidence we can resurrect them.
really strong write, my friend.

This poem is so full of compassion. I am often guilty of getting impatient with people who don't cheer up. I see your point about understanding their pain and depths of despair. Your words have inspired me to be more thoughtful at times. Beautifully rhymed too.

As always your rhyme and flow are spot on ... and the pain behind the words delivers quite the message. Yes, there are times people can not expect us to pretend we are okay. There are times when the grief is everything. ~Jim

Indeed, we never know where the words come from. The pain that some of us hide deep within flows onto the page through our words. We are not here to judge, my friend. I am so pleased you are back here with us again. The pain between the lines of this one touched me. I want to give you a giant hug. Lydi**

Question....how do I make the font on my posts bigger?

[Lydia Shutter]

When you are posting your poem, there is a spot on the upper right side of the posting area that controls the font and the size.

What lovely lines Sharon. Be not quick to judge for you do not know of the suffering that soul endures. Flows beautifully. Classical poetry does it for me. All good wishes.
