Tears Poems
Silver Screen..
by Raina Hutchins
The girl said on the silver screen
A tear in each blue
Please don’t ever leave my love
For if you did, I’d die
I yawned and switched the TV off
I’d seen that film before
And in the end it all came right
Just like a million more

Lying in the Darkness
by Raina Hutchins
Lying in the darkness
Nothing here to see
The shadow of my lonely self
Just staring back at me
Lying in the silence
Deafening to my ear
The beating of my lonely heart
The only sound I hear

Stories Of Rome
by Abasiama Udom
You want to forget the story of Rome,
of dashing warriors and gladiators gloried across our screens.
You want to forget the prophecies of doom,
of weeping and a Saviour that may come
and pray that this peace remains

Without you - there is no me
by Raina Hutchins
I looked into your eyes and saw the window to my soul
And knew right then for me there’s only you
I knew this was forever, I surrendered to this love
I was lost every time I looked at you
I felt I had I been searching - trying every door
But every flame I lit too quickly died
Until the day I found you - just waiting there for me
I knew I’d always want you by my side

How Long...
by Raina Hutchins
As the night descends
And darkness is all I see
Tears I cry will fall
Until the morning sets me free
I never knew that lonely
Could bring me so much pain
I never knew that lonely
Could send me so insane

To See You Cry
by Tom Cameron
It breaks my heart to see you cry
An empty bottle and a letter to yourself
It breaks my heart to see you cry
To hold you is to be at home
Slowly but surely you are coming back to life
To hold you is to be at home
No-one knows what you mean
As it doesn't mean anything but to me

Rage
by Chrissy Davis
Body shaking.
Heart pumping.
Can’t breathe.
Feel like jumping.
Hot tears on the verge of falling.
Can’t break down.
Can’t start bawling.
Tears show weakness.
I’m not weak.
I’m mad as hell.

Lachrymose 2: The Suicide Note
by Khayelihle Bongiswa Gamedze
My heart like a desert dims dry,
Streams of tears fill my eyes.
For my pains and sufferings still I cry...
What use is endurance but why.
My life is done, my thread is run.
Ages of lachrymose I have lived under the sun .
What future there is to long ahead
When you know that you are already dead?

Eye clouds
by Femme Mcbridge
Dripping rains of eye clouds,
With accountability and responsibility.
Balancer breaks of inequality,
With status updates masking its tears.
Mirroring the glory of dreaming soul,
Never staycations felt it’s heart.
Others staycations cover up the spot,
Trying hard to make the kith and kin
Imagine her on this spot.
God’s blessings flood me with my needs,
