Tears Are Words the Heart Cannot Say

by Cara   Jan 1, 2009


You try to get the words out to tell me how you feel
Maybe if you let it out then your heart can finally heal
Do not be afraid, its time you told your tale
When your heart speaks, words begin to fail

Tears stream down your face and you don't say a word
You can remain quiet, but silence is not what I heard
Tears tell me more about your life than any essay
Because see, tears are words the heart cannot say

A tear tells a thousand words, so don't be afraid to cry
Speech is overrated anyway so let your heart fly
Things will get better now, I am sure you will see
How great life can actually turn out to be

    Flawless poem only sketchy thing is the very last line it feels like A: a let down from the rest of the poem picking it up and it wasnt the ending i was hoping for and B: the flow is broken in the last line but I guess that's ok because it is the last line, it was a VERY good poem, I only like poems that acutaly hit my heart this is one of them, favorited.
