Silent Tears That Flow From Deep Within Poem by Bradley Lester

Silent tears that flow, are warm against my flesh
They flow with deep emotions, I watch them drip and fall
They seem to tell a story, of feelings deep within
A story that is sad, my back's against the wall

I'm scared to tell my story, what if people laugh?
I cannot help the way I feel, I'm just a man in love
In love with someone special, that warms my aching heart
And comforts me with kindness, a gift from up above

I wished that she was here, to wipe away the tears
That flow and fall in harmony, from deep within my soul
Her presence would embrace, these tears that cannot cease
And make me feel at peace, with her I feel so whole

The redness in my eyes, the salt they burn and sting
I taste the tears against my lips, my voice I cannot speak
I sit there silently and cry, I fear to be alone
I want to tell my story, of my love for her I've shown
