PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I cannot hinder the words

that flow, so quickly from my pen,

to the tear stained parchment

that is my life.



Nor can I prohibit the salty tears

that flow from my heart,

to spill over the jagged cliffs,

to the water below,

and carried out to sea.



Nor can I prevent the heavy sighs

that escape my lips

carried on the wind’s current,

as a prayer, to God

to help my soul,

lest it be lost in darkness forever.
