Tears of Sorrow, Rivers of Guilt
October 31, 2011
Cold-hearted, they said -
Heart's a glacier,
Melting into tears of sorrow,
Joining into rivers of guilt.
Joining the sea of sadness,
Joining the ocean of madness.
It evaporates for a while -
The entire ocean, it's gone.
But the sorrow rains fast -
The reign lasts -
Flooding, a calamity,
Into the ocean of insanity.
And the Island of Hope fades -
Shrinks into underwater desolation,
Disappears from beneath
your own feet, till you're swimming in the deep.
Swim fast- another island nears -
But you're drowning in your own tears.
