Dev Parth Poet Rhyme

My eyes are crying for me

My eyes are crying, a flood no one sees,
Each tear is a whisper, carried on the breeze.
They mourn for the moments that slipped through my hands,
For dreams turned to ashes, like forgotten sands.

In silence, they weep for the love that won’t bloom,
For shadows that linger in this empty room.
Each drop holds a story of anguish and loss,
Of a heart that’s been shattered, a soul that’s the cost.

They weep for the battles fought deep in the night,
For a spirit that falters, dimming the light.
In the depths of despair, they carry my screams,
For the hopes that have faded, for broken dreams.

My eyes cry for pieces of me that have died,
For the weight of this sorrow I cannot confide.
In the stillness, they bleed, a relentless decree,
A haunting reminder of the pain that is me.

Natasha L Scragg August 2, 2026 at 11:17 PM Dev, thank you for your heartfelt entry in the contest. Your poem inspires us to think about what other people might be facing, such as grief and heartbreak. We don't always know what people are going through or how they are feeling. Someone can feel this kind of pain and still paint on a smile for the world. Although you have not used the required quotes in your poem, it does offer an inspiration of its own and is therefore worthy of an "honourable mention" ✍️✨️🙂
