Rivers of tears

matters of the heart
lie hidden
these untruths
seldom revealed
to the light
of day
of eyes
lusting
lasting
leaving
of all the shadows
cold remains

purpose poses
as if to say
here I am
there I go
forever wandering
in time
never wondering
why we came
where we came
from and leading
to the fall
of water into
waves

eye motions
emotions beg
forgiveness of sins
signs in seasons
opening whether
the weather
the winds
and the rain
cry rivers of tears
cleansing rivers
of blood
while the soul
seeks forever’s
refrain

  1. A beautiful poem, Peter. And here’s some synchronicity – the poem I posted today also has a river of tears in it. We must’ve been on the same wavelength. (That Scorpio thing again. 🙂 ) Will look forward to more poetry from you!

  2. I love the picture Pete. Your words are beautiful and I feel circles. That we circle, gaining different perspectives, returning to centre. ❤
