Drops to puddled pools won't flow
Rippling visions life to stowe
Reflections cast upon a stone
Stains of memory ever shown
Passion aches in tender due
Blurred by sadness kept from view
Captive to these ducts of tears
Tainted scenes for many years
Oceans formed from swells of shame
Distended eyes with bloodless veins
Rides its' crest and fills the souls
Shattered lives and tales untold
Peace of mind can never be
It's lost among the tears you see
Don't suppress a tender sigh
to let the fears within you die

A very sad poem but put in an awesome way! Thank you Paul for all of your sweet comments, it really puts a smile on my face! Thanks. Keep up the awesome work!
This one hints at all the horrible things you must have seen. Awesome imagery throughout. I particularly like the 3rd verse. This poem is filled with feeling and meaning. I also recognize a familiar rhythm here...later to be reborn as a haunting, chilling series of yours. A wonderful offering!

I can relate to this poem, a sensitive soul full of humanity appears through your words and between the lines. The second stanza really speaks to me.
