DISGUISE

 

 

tear that insists in

balancing on the eyes

and stunts

back to its origin

and when the throat

swallows dry

and the heart

is pained in a spasm

it comes back

flooding the iris

and stays strongly secure

priceless and absolute

to the world’s invisible eye

tear that insists

to be shown

emotion reluctant

to be exposed

words almost written

but erased

and the tear

persists flickering

insecure

painful

waiting

for the pain to go away

but in an innocent oversight

stumbles in my sobs

and

.

.

rolls

.

.

down

.

.

 in

.

.

 my

.

.

 face

sadly those tears flow ... whether the pain is from sadness, heartbreak, loss, and even at times just for humanity...tears will flow...nice poem Mary...

I loved it...it had a lot of feeling in it..and you had me feeling like I was the person..I agree with the person who said it makes me slow down..it did!

This is so pure, so heartfelt, you're a gift and an ode to the ink which is writing this down, out of a beautiful mind. I agree with Robin. You're one of them...
This is purity in highly sensitive forma! thank you for sharing dear. xx

hi,
I love the separation of the last few words. makes me slow down when reading it and stands out in the poem :D lovely poem :) and very true
:D

The pain could be felt through words. Awesome work expressed with awesome style. I like also how you separate the last words, somehow puts better accent on your words and what you want to say.

Sometimes we are so sad and it is so hard to hold that tear... it is so hard to pretend. In same situations in life, it is almost impossible.
