A Poem for Black Tears

by: Samuel Tambago (my real name)

Oh, black tears, come and blur my eyes with intense loneliness!
Come and blind my bleak spirit with a noxious, fatal kiss.
 

Sink me deeply into the morose world of dejection.
Sink me mercilessly into my final reclusion.
 

Oh, black tears, flow again and let me sip your bitter taste!
Flow luxuriantly from my well of woes with so much haste.
 

Fall tremendously that my heart will drown in misery.
Fall perpetually that my life will plunge in tragedy.
 

Dear black tears pour from your oasis the scream of sadness!
Pour down the most ardent grief to flood the earth with distress.
 

Daub my very anxious soul with severe melancholy.
Daub it with utmost somber until it drifts warily.
 

Dear black tears drabble down the traces of my sanity!
Drabble down, all its remnants to the mire of lunacy.

For a soul to feel this black and living with darkness all around is a sad and terrible thing when there is so much beauty in the world..if we only get out and look for it,,Too many people place their own happines into the hands of someone else instead of making their ownselves happy..Live life to the fullest every day..Tomorrow may never come..Learn to love yourself before you expect someone else to dry your tears..God bless..Valentine

"Oh, black tears, come and blur my eyes with intense loneliness!
Come and blind my bleak spirit with a noxious, fatal kiss."

The first line drew me right in and I knew this was going to be a
pleasure to read. Very well penned indeed. Tense filled stanzas,
bleak and black. A very melancholy write penned with a passion
and a cry from the soul.

penloverfool,

I really love the unique word choice, imagery, and mostly the flow.
The poem depth, some serious depth straight into the blackness of the heart

although, i was left at the end wondering where allt his beautiful writing was going and why?... Is it simply a poem expressing ones desire of pain... i dunno, but i think you have a msaterpiece here, and maybe i just missed the true form of the ending. eith way magnificent write

much love n respect
