Emotions knotting tight a sombred spirit
painting the soul with saline tears of blue.
I can't soften your pain if don't let me in;
envelop your heart, getting through it all
within each day with every step we take.
Sharing your tears, shouldering your fears
treachery ripples in disgruntled masses
worrying of lost tomorrows, dismayed todays.
As tears rain, surpassing the test of time
believe in wishes, for me, don't give up.
Encased in an eternal guilt-ridden tomb
flooded by tears of death's road to sorrow
of messages sent via angels in absentia,
unspoken words gifted before transition.
Often wondering what's worth continuing on
heaving the turmoils of my disheartened soul;
a beast of burden stuck in time's continuum
unable to proceed past melencholy's obscurity
Emotions knotting tight a sombred spirit
painting my soul with tears three shades of blue.
