Tears of Gray

By Crystal Passion

Tears of gray, tears of pain
they burn their stain into my cheek
but yet i wonder
why
tears of life, tears of joy
refresh my skin with their healing touch

my baron embrace, my empty heart
construct the confines of my mobile prison
but you cemented the walls together
my decision, my own undoing
destroy the prospects of a joyous reunion

I searched continuity in your adoration
you said youd love me hold me forever
and from my hunt, I came up short
and
discovered that
when you said you loved me
you meant fornever

Tears of life
Tears of pain
Tears of joy
Tears of gray

saddening, though I really like the ending.

A former member wrote: that comment was just too small, i had to add something.. I like the flow, the lack of ryhme, or the minor amount that there was made this poem much stronger. And fornever, quite clever
