THE TEARS WON’T STOP

THE TEARS WON’T STOP

A Poem by Sylvia Chika


I try to fight back the tears

They keep coming

They keep pouring

I throw my head back

What a joke!

They dont stop

They keep flowing

They need to stop!

Come onplease!

I need to stop crying

I try to feign a smile

But that doesnt help

The dam burst

The tears poured

Now I cant stop them

This cant continue!

Someone help me!

Anybody!

I should have control!

I must stop this!

The tears keep flowing

Why?!

I try to forget your name

The memories we shared

The thought of you being gone

The pain

The memories of seeing you take your last breath

You struggling for life

You on the hospital bed

The pain!

Oh!

I try!

Im trying!

Lord help me!

The tears keep coming

The pain of loss

The death of a loved one

The pain that tears my heart apart

The pain I feel

You are gone!

Breath gone!

You gone!

The tears wont stop

Great yaar! The words are so simple yet very deep.. How a person feels when their loved ones are no more is well expressed.. Keep going..
