Tears Poems - Poems about Tears

your tears were my ambrosia
i never wanted to be a god— just someone you cried in front of. that was enough divinity for me. your grief tasted like pomegranate seeds, sweet and bitter and buried in the soft ruin of you. i held your sobs in my palms like something holy. like juice from a fruit i didn’t deserve. i didn’t cause your sadness. but i didn’t stop it either. sometimes, i...

The heart said to the eyes: “Cry less—why do you weep, When it's me that suffers, not you.” The eyes replied to the heart: “Stop overthinking— You get depressed; But it’s me that sheds the tears.” The heart then said to the eyes: “Stop dreaming golden dreams, Why spill tears at each flash of memory? It is my chest that melts with each tear.” The...

Tears Of Parrots
Echoes of wandering cares, mask; True ego of expectant filming time, Peeping to view wonder's raw face... Maybe or not it could actuate light Tears aspire to laugh over or embrace. Prayers of guise shame put up task; Heart never wish to visit each price, Let alone kick off its sacrificial start... To redeem the lost shining chance...

Do you now feel at ease?
Do you now feel at ease? When it's all said and done When you've seen and loved Saw the darkest side of life And even questioned the sands of time When you looked up in the sky And acknowledged the beauty of the sun Seen storms imbibe people and trees How did you feel? When you sometimes had friends But sometimes thought you...

Bucket full of tears
A mind so busy My eyes are fuzzy My gates seems rusty My soul a bit frenzy... ... A bucket full of tears... Each moment in life Creates memories we strife A tear of joy or sadness I'm forever fearless With a satisfied fullness Thanks to God's greatness But deep down my soul Is a bucket full of tears like a...

I didn’t expect this – it came quickly, without warning I couldn’t hide. It left me with no choice – but to go to war, battling the deafening poison, the affliction feeling like the deafening crash thunder raging, pouring out its fury I didn’t ever imagine this would come to be, silencing the courage that I’d once felt, giving my plans a...

Lost
My heart is lost in depth of woes, While sorrows echo loud. As tears descend with silent throes~ Beneath a veil of cloud. In the dark I grope for my lost heart, But it's slipped beyond my firm grip. Each tear I shed softens its grave, And deeper it sinks, out of reach. My anguish drums a hollow grief, No hope of joy or...

Premium Member TEARS FROM AN ANGEL
I awoke to foggy windows, there were raindrops tapping softly. The trees were swaying to the rhythm, I fell ill from melancholy. The sky was so dark, it had made angels cry. Strong winds rushed in, grey clouds blew by. I felt my strength fading fast, My head had found its pillow again. I layed back down with no regrets, I covered up and settled in. My...

6/17/2025 Before Heaven began showing its anger, stillness claimed ownership of the midnight sky. But distant flashes instantly brought thunder, I awoke from slumber thinking dawn was nigh. Then that precise moment clouds began to weep, were cloud tears giving my home town a purging. Tears were puddling and I thought is there no end, my interrupted rest was at God’s urging? ...
