Tears. ..A Translation


Tears translate to ink
What  the lips clamp down upon
What can  only  be expressed in
Tears
Become words
Each searing hole in my heart
Glows it's lacerations
On  paper.....
Laced together
My pain and  hurt
Huddles  against the world
You  may call it
Poetry.....

I  have
Threaded with  caution and care
Teased and taught restraint
Taut with  tensions
Sublimate of suppression
It is my  mind
Moving dancing
The steps  of  despair
steeped up
The tune is agony in my ears.
