one tear
sometimes poets take more than they should
maybe…
THIS WRITING INSPIRED DANILO LEJARDI TO CREATE AN AMAZING PIECE CALLED
A PRIVATE TEAR
THANK YOU SO MUCH DANILO*!
one tear belongs to the following groups:
Complex Simplicity of Art, Core [C.O.R.E], Deep Within, Feminine Intent (LIMIT TWO IMAGES PER DAY), Light In The Darkness, Nirvana (Only 1 photographic art and 1 written work will be accepted per day ), The Art of Intrigue 2/24, The Healing Journey, THE SISTERHOOD and Up & Coming Writersone tear
and then she took his private tear,
and allowed the world to drink from it’s source
for him it felt a bit less
and tawdry
he desired
her
he desired her for him and all the words
in-between a feather bed
the allegories
bedtime stories
and the rhythm of the phrases
she sang him
lullabies of lust.
she smiled at him and said just this one time,
but she lied
and didn’t mean too
he felt his tear after tear fed to the masses
and she smiled and said
tis better,
see how good they feel?
but he did not
then one day
he disappeared
and she was broken
he left a note,
and inside it was one more tear
for you
he said
do with this as you will.
she looked at it’s shine and it’s
innocence,
and she licked it up
and drank him down
there she found out
how wrong she had been
this was precious indeed
so sweet his essence
so priceless his knowing
Then…
she became a river,
and there by her banks
they gathered and drank
and many were healed in spirit
many began to sing the praises of
fulfillment and joy
he stood by on a hilltop looking
down to the waters that she had
become
understanding now his purpose in all
what was her desire to create
and his
to be part of all that she was
and he too saw from the banks of
his own willingness,
nothing had been forsaken
just in fact
expanded.

I wonder….
will the male’s tears taste likely to the female’s?
She will always be turned into a river..
sweet and ready to go up in couds of glory.
And his… oh… they taste like volcano’s fumes…
turning the nature upside down..
desintegrating the lover’s stillness of heart.
Fluids all the same…
alt and sky drops in dreaming essence.

linaji replied
Rosa.. I don’t know today.. perhaps.. tears to rivers are just the way of the world.. and then to the sea.. back to the ever loving grand never ending sea…xoxo
