Tears
A poem by James Nemecek.....
Shouts in anger
A door is slammed
Faces hot and trembling
TEARS
Begging, pleading, A fleeting touch
She turns away
Misunderstanding and lies
TEARS
Feeling hopeless, wanting
A child's curious, nervous face
No way to explain
TEARS
Undying love, Till death do us part!
She falls, He falls
A child loses a father, A child loses a mother
Hearts are shattered
TEARS
