Best Cried Poems

They told me you cried on the day I died
A sob splintering through a silent dome
Your sorrow a shroud on the catacomb
As I laid where birds no longer replied
Now I watch as you slowly search the beach
For those rare shells edged in liminal blue
I would gift you that impossible hue
To show I was within sight,...

It wasn't destiny or fate that brought us together.
There was no roar of thunder,  
     no strike of a lightning bolt,
          no rain cleared my vision.
               It...

Why, Momma, why?
Was I not deserving 
of you?
Was I not good?  
Was I too frail?
Did you send me away
Because your own life 
derailed?

Why, Momma, why
Do I still secretly wail?
Asking myself what did I do so 
wrong? How did I fail?

What you called rebelliousness
Was the only way I knew how 
to stay strong sometimes, I'd...

Last night I cried and to tell the truth
I really don't know why
Perhaps it was the loneliness
or the anger trapped inside

I cried because the things I want
seem like a distant dream
And no one really understands 
the way I feel - it seems

I cried because I need someone
to whisper in my ear
"no matter what the problem...

He cried when he was happy,
He cried while he was sad,
He cried when he felt nothing,
He cried while he was mad.

He cried when he saw laughter,
He cried when he saw tears,
He cried when he saw someone
Aged beyond their years. 

He cried when he would walk home
From Work every day. 
He cried when he had free...

His love was ever present but quiet…still in it they found relief…so it only stands to reason he’d be quiet in his grief.

There are no rules for dealing with death…which is why, after his wife died,…despite his heart being broken…despite his sorrow…despite all this…he never cried.

His children and friends would visit…wanting to help…and in so...

Prayer Cried Out In The Storming Waves



Fought the waves, the maddened tumbling sea
doomed ship sinking swiftly beneath me
Prayers to God,to every saint I ever knew
no desire to reside beneath this ocean blue

Midnight's stormy fury soon moved past
ship gone, me clinging to a broken mast
Fear, the kind that eats into your soul
rebuked my every hopeful, impossible...

Tonight tears hewed
Flowing into a vaso of wine
Over rainbows
Dreams get lost
Lovers fade
True friends rare
 I miss the ones
Who traveled far
Crawling
Out from crowds
White rose's of mystery
Alone my smile hides
Lost desires
If only
A tear could be shared
Between two...

A Squirrel Cried

I heard outside a mournful sound
I went outside to look around
A squirrel cried for heaven’s sake
Cried as if he heart did break
A from the corner of my eye
I saw a pair of wings fly by
Wings that took off for the trees
I saw at once the squirrel freeze
I ran to see where it had...

I Cried

We danced and kissed under the stars all night
When we parted ways I cried
Our last kiss on this earth...

She cried, She died inside over and over again, She was trapped in herself 
and she had no way of escaping. Taking drugs to dull the mud that's been in her 
eyes 
for years. She's so far away from reality that it's like she is constantly 
sleeping. 
She has to remind herself what's fictional and...

I almost cried…..
When we fought,
And you went away.

I almost cried…..
When we were all alone,
and had nothing to say.

I almost cried…..
When in night,
You slept away from me.

I almost cried…..
When your arms,
were not there to hug me.

I almost cried…..
When in the morning,
You didn’t wake me up with a good morning kiss.

I almost cried…..
When from the bottom of...

At the pain-struck point of passing the 
universe in me that cried of loss 
imploded every star and moon 
until a meteoric cross 
was borne upon my back.

At the dawn of dark despairing the 
universe in me that cried denial 
shook forgotten childhood roots, 
cranked the grief and all the while 
let light succumb to...

I cried at the lake
Ripples of tears across smooth water
I cried at the brook
My tears fell into gurgles that turned to giggles
I cried at the ocean
Where the surf swallowed my tears to be no more

Then, I smiled at the sun
As it toasted the beach sand hot
I smiled at the sun
As it sparkled in the brook
I...

Another day is almost past;
How fast they go and speed away,
Twilight rolls over sunset’s gold,
Like tidal waves keep beaches at bay.

Memories remembered, no new ones made,
As TV and book on a Lazy Boy left,
Caring children are paying the price,
For Mama’s comfort, though she’s bereft.

Smiling starches and SAS soft shoes
Come to roll her back to her...
