I'm laying here tonight
In the bed we used to share
Looking at your side hurts
Without you it's so bare
I pull your pillow close to me
But you scent is gone too
As tears roll down my face
My heart breaks again missing you
It hurts a little extra knowing
You leaving is because of me
This burden I'll carry forever
I deserve all this misery
I don't deserve happiness
That fact should be known
I deserve this life of regret
That I'll forever spend alone
Crying when it is Raining
Raining, no smiles from heaven, but tears; Someone made God angry,
Crying when it is Raining; Rain makes you depress, sleepy, and irritable.
Can you smile or cry when it is raining. Rain, clouds in the sky, Dark,
and lonesome. Crying when it is Raining; I will be glad when it stops
raining.
I have never seen a star cry
Such weakness does not befit the sky
Inside my tears I search for why
The Heavens above have cursed thy
A solemn light prick from the black
Magnifying all of the virtues I lack
The Darkness which fills the crack
Beckons me to leave and never look back
Shall I forever drown inside the swallow
Never to face my fears tomorrow
Pulled to and from my dreaded sorrow
Into an abyss where no one follows
There is a reason Stars don’t cry
They are shielded from thine naked eye
Having no reason to be prodded or pried
My friend or foe I can’t decide.
Marching fighting living dying keep moving forward there is no time for crying
Attack retreat move forward move back killing the enemy in another attack
Body parts strewn all around on the ground while blood from the dead has turned the dirt red
Death from the land the sea and the air who are we killing dose anyone care
The enemy have no faces and we don't know their name we are just pawns in wars deadly game
Bullets with your name on shells hitting the ground screaming of the dying is the normal sound
Marching fighting living dying keep moving forward as there is no time for crying
My eyes are crying, a flood no one sees,
Each tear is a whisper, carried on the breeze.
They mourn for the moments that slipped through my hands,
For dreams turned to ashes, like forgotten sands.
In silence, they weep for the love that won’t bloom,
For shadows that linger in this empty room.
Each drop holds a story of anguish and loss,
Of a heart that’s been shattered, a soul that’s the cost.
They weep for the battles fought deep in the night,
For a spirit that falters, dimming the light.
In the depths of despair, they carry my screams,
For the hopes that have faded, for broken dreams.
My eyes cry for pieces of me that have died,
For the weight of this sorrow I cannot confide.
In the stillness, they bleed, a relentless decree,
A haunting reminder of the pain that is me.
Cycle of life so confusing,
my life turns upside down just like falling off a swing!
Born to be cherished only to receive hate.
Forgive me, life, but why am I always the bait?
Wanted to live in peace with love and passion.
The man who gave me life took it away in seconds.
Awful, awful, awful, I truly hate your face.
Are you happy now? To see your daughter's life go to waste?
The clock quietly ticking away.
The leaks dripping more every day.
Why not cry?
When you are soaked and overshadowed,
Why not cry aloud?
Cry to release the pain
Of the poor soul, deeply wounded.
Is it unfair? Is it senseless?
I wonder why, why and why
The pain of a drowning man
Cannot be poured out through tears.
No! Though hopeless and faded,
Please, release it — just cry.
Cry in prayer at Jesus' cross,
And let your pain be relieved.
all I desired
made me an oval …
teardrop with legs
wet and heavy
makes life unsteady …
teardrops wobble
sibling nor friend
has an ear to lend …
tears want to talk
Once again I am lost,
No words left to utter
That hasn't already been said.
What else is there to share,
What else could there be
Other than the incessant cries of my desperation
As I beg you to come home to me.
It seems to me my tears never seem to really stop
lingering in the distance, free falling.
Mist, cloud, and rain.
A unfriendly wood, built long ago
By unspoken nails, pressing in
On spirits who feel the ache, heartbreak
Trembling in rhythms, waves
Melancholy, grief, the seeds of weeping
Prayers who cease to feel relief
From the unending protest of a soul
Who just doesn’t know – tears still flow
Screams, screeches, groans and wails,
Brutalities, agonies, torture, and blood,
Tear gas, pellet guns, bullets and bombs
Humanity sobs; the world falls apart
Does anyone care?
Kids are blinded
Men are jailed
Women are molested
The old are tortured
Luckily, you have food
Billions are starving
You have a warm blanket
Trillions live under the frigid sky
Dreams are murdered
Voices go unheard
Wishes fade and blur
Every heart has become a graveyard
Sweet melodies step down
As Sighs take over the throne
Rainbow of Joy is washed away
By the deluge of tears
The soul of Humanity becomes a prey
To the endless wild forest of wars
While atrocities have robbed
Jaws of their smiles...
Yet you say the world is beautiful??
Yes, perhaps for you,
For you are at peace….
Come out of your palace
You will see….
Sky painting itself red!
Butterflies renouncing their dreams
Birds with trimmed wings
Oceans of blood,
barren trees, burnt houses,
Tear-filled eyes, and shattered bodies.
Earth is ugly
Earth is savage
Earth is a cage
Earth is but a jinxed place!
Yet, our only home,
Our only hope....
Sleepless night
My heart running
After the sound of the ocean
The dry land in forms of waves
My mind going back
To the starting point
Days are short and nights are long
In my mind is the only place
You can find the truth
Hope is hopeless in the law of mass
I want to have hope but
Wherever the sky is you will find the sea
And the storms follows too
I have ice to see
Whenever it too hot it changes to water
So I keep them close until night
That's the only time I can open them
And the sun won't make me cry
Every night the moon is beautiful as rosés
The sky is my to explore and admire
But the moon is for the stairs
Only if I could by any means I will
Sunlight being too bright for me to focus on
No can see whenever am crying
Cause the rain washes out my tears
So my ices stays blue
The shapeless tears goes wherever the waves blow
My bed it's found deep into the ocean
And I sleep in water but my body never gets wet
SWEDES MAKE A BIG SQUAWK
THE CURLING WORLD IS IN SHOCK
CANADA SAYS CROCK
