Tears Tell God
just behind my eye's
under my eye lids
sometimes tinkle
two tears
armed and fully loaded
ready at any notice
to spring forth
and fall out
one soldier for
each eye
a voluntary army
set to
moisturize
at a moment when
ears may hear
or eye's see
or thoughts confirm
that sadness will occur
for sadness is a war
one has with one's self
concluding that
there is no hope left
no way out
tears come forth
with scream and shout
my soul has been angered
and cries out to it's God
eye's telling secrets
concealed by the tongue
deep in a soul
a bell has been rung
signaling soldiers to
run soldiers run
you have a sacred duty
to both soul and self
go tell God, tell God
tell God
