Life

Tears make a path of wet hope

on our face, whilst rolling down.

Representing the road we need to walk,

guiding us through ups and downs.

Softly gaining speed, whilst letting emotions go.

But then, surprisingly freezing in time and standing still.

A gentle sign of moments you’ll never forget.

Strengthening your soul and shaping your life.

As in forever, guiding you through the

hardest moments life could ever take you to.

Reminding you of the happiness that came before,

the sadness that came after, and the joy that

will finish the trip we call life.

Tears are good, they are the overspill of emotion we can't handle, you are obviously very in touch with yours. Nice write.

This is my sort of poem. Construction, choice of words and imagery very well done. A lot of people will identify with this poem. It is quite happy and hopeful. Liked it very much. Great job

~ What a beautifully philosophical metaphor. You have expressed such a profound introspection of life and the experiences and sorrow that comes with. For tears is not such a bad thing, so much more than a mere reaction to grievance or joy. They lay down our pathways for us to tread in past, present and future.
