Jar of Tears

Jar full of tears

 

 

The sounds of tears dropping down my face

is the sweet lullaby that drifts me off to sleep

For tears, have no care

They will seep whenever

Leaving you bare

They will haunt you until you confront them

But only if you dare

 

I collect not one but two

Jars of tears every night

With hell in plain sight

For I cannot confront my tears

 

I hide behind a buffer

So, no one can see my tears

No one can see me suffer

But one day I will break free

I promise you,

I will run with glee

 

But until that day, I wipe my tears clean

My face will stay full of sorrow

Full of pain

I will forever have

A tearstain

Okay, let me start by saying that I simply cannot stand poetry. That said, this solemn, evocative piece held my interest, and was well done.

Awh...this is so mournful, and sad...it really got through to me, the emotion was really raw & clear, but still poetic. great poem :)
