Thoughts keep racing
through my mind
as I sit here to think
of what Ive been through
what Ive done
and what there is to come
but all Ive done
is broken oaths
tears drown me alive
if I could think
of what Ive done
and where I could go wrong
Id go right there
and clean it up
washing stains away
but nothing seems to go away
nothing seems to change
I wish it would be different but
tears drown me instead.

Poetry: Tears
A LITTLE GIRL CRIES
A little girl cries as she sits alone on the edge of her bed,
So perfectly made in her room so neat and
Moisture dropping upon my cheeks
My soul releasing
Clear droplets like the morning dew
Glistening on an aspen tree
Tears are
Tears
There it is again,
the unavoidable burning in my throat
that signals the trapped emotions of tears wanting to escape.
Quietly they fall, disturbing nothing.
No trace left behind as they vanish.
Yet their existence holds so much.
A clear morsel
Prettiness has dashed him awake
He has become nothing next to her power
Lost in his scattered tears
She has taken her stand
