Tears, But Eyes Dry
Tears, But Eyes Dry
Encompassing anger, irritation, frustration, pain, tears!
All a visible reality, except tears! None, none, visible!
No tears! No tears! Yet, relentless crying, crying.
None showing, no tears flowing, only on the inside.
Different day - same story, same family, same !
Same issue - no solution: more nag, no quit!
Irritating, and annoying: old drum; same beat, same tune.
Sun to sun; moon to moon; seeing no ending anytime soon.
Administration possession - on your life, it is wisdom;
On mine – ceaseless, uninvited, inappropriate intrusion.
Marriage! Marriage! Someone told you, I’m bound for cage?
“Cage” is by choice - no matter age; but, better is stage.
Time and season for everything; mine will come; not your time.
If she is to be, she will be; not your; nor my control; time divine.
My life is not open for your administrative control.
Your “unwanted input” is taking an undesirable toll.
I care for her! I love her! So, what!?! Is that sinful or illegal??
I will continue to stand by her; and will help her, in total.
We’re not together: don’t care what people say; or who you listen.
I’m living for me, not you; it’s my heart’s issue; the only begotten.
End
