A WOMAN'S TEARS

A WOMAN'S TEARS

A Poem by FlawedByDesign

A WOMAN’S TEARS

The world resides in her eyes behind
the incandescent vitality of youth.
Trapped in the fluorescence of her tears
sleeping in the fabric of her dreams.


Effervescent freckles in her gaze
a reflection of beauty within.
An imaginary island; perfection
painted in the bright minds of old.


A single teardrop drips down her cheek
across the universe of her starry face.
It illumines the world held within
echoing the innocence of her years.


Remit the release of her purity
let it not shatter by way of woe.
Kiss her divine face with your fingers
and return the tear to its rightful place.


Sacred are a woman’s tears.

***The story is about the importance of a woman's tears (hence sacred) because the world resides inside and would shatter if the tear was to ever slide off her face.

"An imaginary island; perfection
painted in the bright minds of old." - refers to Utopia.

This is sweet, and the message was pure as snow :) I liked this poem a lot (from the other's that I've read), and I like the third stanza the best. And as the other reviews stated... smashing.. beauty... wisdom. There is a meaning behind this leaves me feeling like I'm not alone. Thanks, and I'm sure you'll keep up the writing! :D
