Pain Drowns In Tears Of Hope

Pain Drowns In Tears Of Hope

A Poem by KAREN

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Her pain drowns in tears of hope,

while images of his face

dance between freedom and loneliness.

Pictorial poetry memories

rest inside her abandon mind,

and her heart summons her inner

strength to swim in her

tears of hope.

 

She resides in tranquility to get

ready for the self-examination of what

she did wrong.

Despair lengthens as the windless night

hums a monotonous tone of what once was.

Illusions pray for the songs of her soul

as she struggles to stay above

tears of hope.

 

A lullaby of his voice keeps her afloat

as calm and peace waver around

her waist as a life preserver.

Vunerability threatens to sink her

into the depths of her own

tears of hope.

 

She breathes in colors of dreams,

and that somewhere in time

he will return and rescue her before she drowns in

tears of hope.

Perfect imagery. You painted a scene that had this reader hoping you would loose hope before you drown. The last line shows the futility and the beauty at once. Hope is both beautiful and pathetic here. Loved it.

Drowning in tears of hope. I get that phrase. SOmetimes we have hope but should let it go before it takes us over when what we are hoping for isn't ever going to happen. Sometimes in life moving on is the scariest possibility but is what we truly need.
