Let Me Cry

Let Me Cry

Oh curse the air that would dry these tears
   that lie within their painful retreat.
The guardians of common sense
   keep careful watch, lest the hidden treasure be exposed.

Oh let one drop flow and I would rejoice!
So dear the fluid, the waters of Galilee
   are captured by a dam built by fear and guilt.
The fair pools are full; river beneath the river reflecting my heart.
Twin reflections hold tears for my son and daughter.
Long suffering has been a tearless torment.

Brian Johnston Date: 10/6/2015 10:20:00 PM There is value in verses like these Pat and in your tears as well, precursors as they are to forgiving ourselves. A statue that waits for rain alone in a park to shed its tears will never become fully human, and isn't that what we all aspire to? Our guilt can never atone for the mistakes of our children, but freeing ourselves from that guilt can change the world. Peace dear poet!
