    • I have recently had my book "Brain Etchings" poetry from a cynical old geezer published. It is available on blurb.com or you can contact me here.

    Needless Tears
    When inside myself I look
    Much different than an open book
    where words express a thoughtful scene
    the words in me are painful screams
    unlike a placid, crystal lake
    my thoughts are snarled, full of ache
    Expression haunts me
    when I speak
    the meaning lost
    from skills so weak
    relationships begin to crumble
    frustration trips me so I stumble
    with heavy soul from desperate fears
    so needless now my falling tears

    This is a wonderful poem. It drew me in from the very beginning. I think that almost anyone could really relate with this. Very well put!

    I would be a millionaire right now if I could count all my tears and your tears of life. Often and sadly it is a shame that i have cried practically all of my life but it brings so much strength and healing afterwards. Wonderful poem and it is such a reality. http://alejabennett.net84.net

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
