Sea Of Tears

Sea Of Tears

Whats keeping
Me down
 
Whats holding
Me back
 
My life is
slipping
through
the cracks 
 
One more poem
One more song
 
What am I
doing wrong
 
Sea of tears

Momma's gone
Family has moved
away
 
God
Help me
make it
through another
day
 
No longer clear
storm clouds are
near
 
in a
Sea  of Tears
 
Another toke
Another beer
in a
Sea of tears
 
Thoughts confused
Where do I
go now 
stuck in first gear
 
In a Sea
of Tears
 
No excuses
but
Plenty of regrets
Plenty of fear
 
in a Sea
 of Tears
 
 near 
the end
Sorrow has become
my best
friend
 
Wrote about it
for years
 
in a Sea
Full of Tears
 
2008 HC Holbert

"Sorrow has become my best friend". I can really relate, as we age we see so many opportunities, and loved one's pass us by. It's hard to understand, but this poem rocks. So do you. Find comfot for yourself in beauty, memories, and delicious food. Write on...

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
