One Single Tear

by Kuro   Aug 29, 2010


Gazing into nothing
There is a familiar place
No sadness nor joy
Expressionless face

But inside my mind
Thoughts are racing
All of my mistakes
I have been tracing

My hopes and dreams
Slowly fading
Outer emotions
I've been evading

Upon my cheek
What should appear
Something unexpected
One single tear

Its hard to hide
All of your fears
You keep buried inside
With the rest of your tears

    This poem really amazed me! Especially the depth of emotions each stanza contained. This poem was flawless, wonderful job!!! Loved the line when you said something unexpected upon your cheek, that was a wonderful way of describing it. Loved this whole piece. 5/5. :)

    Kuro, emotions that swell inside of us, if only we could let them all out and start again.

    Bottled up thoughts as well as feelings cause us such heartache..and like Olwin said a single tear does make it even more sad..touching..take care.

    We do indeed bottle up emotions inside... until the tears flow. But your single tear in your poem makes it so sad! ... and deep. Well written Ben and expressed ( as all your writes are :) )

    Very Well Done :)
    ( I Love the rhyme in your poem also..) All the Best! & take care... Olwin.
