Tear Poems - Poems about Tear

No single tear is for you 2
The wind banged against the windows, likely ruining hundreds of curtains meant to protect the warmth inside. It made a soft rustling sound. Eighteen meters away, my lookalike and I met at the final farewell the beginning that could have been. He had the same birthmark as me on his chin, where he nervously tapped just...

No single tear is for you
Eyebags forming. Dilated pupils. The one starting pulling away. Leg-crossed and the hand supporting the chin. The right arm falls in imbalance. Leg does not stop moving back and forth. So quick turning excitement into torture. Searching the whole river in the eyes was reached. Now it‘s just a motionless navy blue. Welcoming the seabird to stop and scream for...

What do you fear?
It's a fresh day To play in a new way To convey each light ray More pray, no delay, fair pay We stay where we lay What can I say? Stand up, quit your sit Take a breath, rest a bit Ensure you stay fit Get ready for the hit Grab your jumping kit Fall not into pit As he'd walk into your block In seconds, he'll...

Truthful Tear
The sky, a bruised plum, holds its breath. Then, a rip. Not clean, not surgical, but a jagged tear across the seamless blue. Wind, suddenly a tangible beast, claws at the trees, whips skirts around legs, a low growl escalating. First fat drops, hesitant scouts on dusty sidewalks, exploding with a dark kiss. Then the deluge. A roaring curtain separating now from then, sight from sound. Light, fractured and violent, slices the world in...

A single tear is all I can give, For my body is drained of that pleasure. I’m too weak to remember the years I lived, Or the days too heavy to measure. So where does that leave me falling? What is it that could cure me? A single walk would tell me nothing - But at least for a moment I’d be...

Open your mind once again and shed some tears for a world full of pain Shed some tears for the children that die and for the mothers that openly cry Shed some tears for needless death in war not really knowing what they are fighting for Shed some tears for the people with no home the unwanted that...

The echo returns not
Alone, I stand till pain returns; The ocean’s waves rise near. Its roaring drowns the world outside, Yet cannot quell my tear. Each day, my pain revives anew~ Afraid, alone, and lost. The street, my home, my only friend, A life devoid of cost. My childhood swept away by winds; Its echoes sound no more. From deep within, regret still burns, An ember at my core. The...

Shadows stretch beyond a tree where to and fro an empty swing drifts of memories so long ago... Rain beats down upon my mind a cold chill drifts no longer a child I hear the sound where echoes call a moment in time lost for now Fragmented facets unlatched receed drifting away no longer feed a love...

Premium Member A tear slides down my skin, cold as silence, soft as a whisper
A tear slides down my skin, cold as silence, soft as a whisper, And when it reaches my lips, it curls at the edges, a silent irony of sadness, Was it pain or relief, suffering or peace, a paradox flowing from my eyes, Wearing a mask that even I cannot decipher, an enigmatic story in disguise, The world sees...

Breath of light, casting shadows over the night Soothing stars and moon in her gentle embrace Hurling nervous sea against beaches so white Gentling the surf with a calm time can’t erase Cobalt sprays fall against the sandcastle reefs Stirring wells of euphonious tones of grace Mists of joy, glazing the trembling cloverleafs Sunlight glow murmuring peace to the coastline Sand dollar stories...

Of all her fasioned intruge, oh how it seems...her longing to be a star Of lace and draped garb she wears a trinket of charm And gives all she has to capture a dream With pounding applause the crowd screaming aloud she gracefully enters the stage With doubt in her mind her heart still alive She plays the performance of...
