Poetry: The reason for my tears

by Shannon Stanfield

Created on: October 28, 2009

Life is full of hopes and fears

It steals the light from many tears

Sadness and death grips my heart

Rage and anger pulls families apart

Loved ones leaving; loved ones dying

The rest of us are left cold, dark and crying

Temptations rise; people fall

No ones left walking tall

Tear drops falling at our feet

As we bow before the mercy seat

Madness running through our veins

Shooting flairs at all these pains

Soaking tears fill our hearts

I wonder when destiny starts

Having no love and feeling a burning pain

Oh my God; I am going insane
