Tell me- Do you see the tears dripping down this page,
Do you feel my words- Incarcerated in rage.
I’ve introduced you to the concept of making my Poems Cry,
Filling them with my pain- With my will to just die.
I know you feel the dampness- The page is drenched in tears,
It won’t stop sobbing- Revealing all my fears.
Sometimes it’s a trickle- It only cries a little,
Others it’s uncontrollable- Tears the size of nickels.
My words are like daggers- And my verses are the twist,
And when I shoot my flames- I guarantee not to miss.
Continue to keep reading- In time you’ll see the crying,
Each and every rhyme is a feeling inside me.
Do you see it yet- Are your hands getting wet,
They’re slowly making their journey- Your mind hasn’t met yet.
Or maybe you don’t comprehend- These words from within,
Too advanced for your brain- An analytical sin.
I pour out my heart on to paper through a pen,
And you call that a hobby?- Here we go again.
This is a talent- Or should I say a gift,
Just by using words- The heaviest burden I lift.
It’s only for a short period- But none the less it’s done,
My words are like a hoist- Yes, the biggest one.
They went from daggers to a hoist- How very uncanny,
But you can’t do it and neither your friend- Or tell me, can he?
I speak to you the truth- And still it stay rhyming,
And indescribable talent- Oh yea, Do you hear this poem crying?
I’m an artist with words- They vividly illustrate,
The words of common use- Being put together so great.
You can read this and think I’ve been doing this for years,
But I haven’t- It’s new and natural,
I’m just crying my Poetic Tears.
