PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Outside it is raining,
pouring down a steady stream,
but it is not water that falls
but tears.
Tears and blood and fear and sweat-
-The soup of war,
the broth of human nature.
Down and down,
a torrent of sorrow,
a wave of dispare.
Broken hearts shall fill the seas,
shadows swarm the lands.
Fearful skies bleed heartbeats,
knives cut only hope.
Sever the tie that holds us here,
break the unbreakable bond.
So that man may live without the flood
of the silence that he brings.
