Feelings and Tears

Tears try hard to hide. And feelings are much the same This I’ve come to know. Feelings, sometimes, walk with tears. So, each other, they betray. Written By John Posey 04/20/13

I know this to be true, all to well. You've said so much here, with very few words...I wish that I could do that!...Fantastic poetry, Jake!...Please, read my new poem titled, "Tears In Heaven"...Thank you for the nice comments on my poem, "Broken Wings". I am sorry if I made you feel that way. But, the reality of life can make one sick, sometimes! :)
