These Tears Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

These tears will never erase
The pain my heart now bears
From memories of days
We shared in love and cares.

Tears now shed from my eyes
Flow constantly in sorrow -
They came with your last 'goodbye'
And the uncertainty of tomorrow.

Tears that may in brief respite -
Comfort, release the heavy burden,
Fail to drown the grief with it
And fill the vacuumed heart again.
