If Tears Were Poetry
If tears were poetry,
my words would flow
in a constant stream
onto the dampened paper,
running together in a blur
of forever promises
and hoped for futures
But alas they are merely
salt stained lines
in sorrowed cursive fonts,
drenched in phrased sadness,
falling from my eyes,
flooding the cracks
of my broken heart
If tears were poetry,
I would be a poet
