The Flood
The Flood
The feeling of tears,
but yet no one hears.
There's a tear in the sky.
the bird's fly.
The clouds have overflowed.
Then the winds will blow.
You made the tear,
The tear that I had to repair.
Look at me; tell me how it is.
Space from my heavy flowing love
You see me for who I am.
Wanting to feel the acceptance.
For the love I have found
What is normally dry land.
About this poem
I started this poem in a high school. It was a very hard time in my life as you can see. It's important to me to express myself and today it was though my poem. The concept for this poem was a flood in an emotionally sensitive state of mind and trying to find peace in myself to heal.
