The Tears We cry

Destiny’s wheel spins
we all fit in there to eventually erode
at our given place in time.

Often we hear a calling
then yearn in heart or mind to follow
…the elusive.

To seek comfort in truth
of touching beauty
Know the bliss of a
kissing rain which falls
soft upon each petal of pain
and, for one sweet moment
soothes as a caress of silk
to waiting skin.

So caught up in lifes rush
there’s no time to observe as we each
try to bend the world to our will

To shape it in this land of illusion.
And, no-one sees the
tears we cry
but

Us.

  2. A very interesting and observant piece, even if its not your views exactly. It tells a lot about how some people do view the world. ~MsQ

  9. Beautiful poem and you have let free so many thoughts which may have been dogging so many minds!! Love the opening lines. Well done!!

  16. That is a sad one 😦 xxxxx You have not written one so sad in a bit, hope all is well!!!

  20. I’m all caught up in the comfort of truth. So often truth is considered uncomfortable. but there’s a lot of comfort in the unassailablility of truth.

  22. We shape destiny by our will. Yes true. And we bring to ourselves pain because of our selfishness or narrowmindedness.

  23. Yep, all that world bending — I had to give it up, as the world was kicking my butt. Really has a mind of it’s own.

    petal of pain is lovely. The whole poem is.

  24. How beautiful, true and sad this is!
    We should be able to share those tears somehow with a twin soul…

    Thanks for your coment at sweeterpoetry.
    🙂

  27. cool photo and I understand the message as we are all so busy trying to control the world and our life that we don’t notice anything but ourselves and our own tears – what a sad way to live and so many people do. Glad you’re not one of them 🙂

  30. How much rain can you kiss? Lots of it you’re sure to miss. Oh don’t hiss, some of it can still cause bliss..haha

    So true an illusion it can be, wonderful piece as always.

  32. Know the bliss of a kissing rain which falls soft upon each petal of pain…

    My favorite part, though it’s lovely in it’s entirety.
    🙂

  33. Sometimes other special people see too..and it means so much when they do..a little comment..a little understand helps re-build the erosion..Jae

  36. there’s no time to observe as we each
    try to bend the world to our will

    Those lines really speak truth. Excellent. Excellent. I very much like the cadence, the imagery.
