Sorrows of Tears

SORROWS OF TEARS The world is such a painful place to be It has blessed us with stings of a bee Yet with free-flowing lyrics of art Permit me to unleash the agonies of my heart Those painful moments of a wandering soul At the lonely night abode of an owl Where my gentle screams of fear Are empty because no one listens to hear Darkness befalls my soul at night As I journey through the path with a tiny light With pain so deep even to the bone marrow; and a haunting regret that only the strong can swallow Never look out for the scars of my past While I wear my deceptive smile to overcast Just look deeper into the anguish of my eyes Pains have turned me into a master of disguise I know I solely deserve this agonizing pain To sit out and die alone in the scorching rain To die, I must have to do this alone But the source of my pain remains unknown In reality, we live just once But life offers each man a second chance My long walk towards genuine happiness can also be found in the altar of authentic goodness There is a glimpse of hope that falls from my heart Even amidst the battles that keep my soul apart Kindly come with me and hold my hand At the end, my sorrows you will surely understand.

Thanks for sharing this. God bless you. Meanwhile, I greet you with a Joyous New Year with this prayer from the Bible in Numbers 6:24-26, "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."
