Tears

TEARS
                       My tears have become my best friend.
                              I’ll cry them until the very end.
                           Sorrow has filled my life with pain.
                         Your death is making me feel insane.
                            Being alone without you everyday.
                              I ask myself is this the only way.
                            I wonder if my life will ever change.
                      Mabee if it would I’d quit feeling so strange.
         No one knows about lonelyness until you’ve lost your only love.
               I prayer every night for blessing from our Lord above.
                             I would give my all to have you back.
                       Mabee then my life would get back on track.
                          No one knows how lonely and sad I feel.
                            Your death made everything so unreal.
                        The kids are fighting and I can’t make it right.
                             I need you to hold me just for one night.
                                   We’ll be together again someday.
                                                 Soon I pray.
                                                            Teresa Skyles 07/12/16

Teresa, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
