Mirrored Tears (Sedoka)

by TJ Arizona Eagle   Feb 2, 2012


From her sad eyes flow
Crystal tears on broken glass
Mirrored by their loneliness

Where happiness bloomed
Clouds moved in and cloaked with gloom
Mirrored tears again flow free

    A very thoughtful poem, crisp and transparent imagery. Your poems are very motivational, i admire your choice of words. Sad moments can't be escaped in as much as the precaution taken.. Fate can't be avoided, you literally made the reader feel the agony of the subject through your words. Very CREATIVE! Be blessed.
