Sorrow Solidified Poem by Valsa George

Sorrow Solidified

Rating: 5.0


A teardrop
stays
long suspended
in my eyes
stubborn not to spill
I wait for a wind
to shake it loose
in the dead of the night
to empty me
of my agony
to feel waking
out of a nightmare
to a sunlit
clear morn

Just wipe it off and have another dream That will bring to your eyes a happy gleam Your nightmare will go with a bit of luck And no longer will you be with fear struck I have this great ability to pinch my self and wake up whenever I have a nightmare. Fortunately; I don't get nightmares anymore in my old age.Thanks Valsa for sharing your lovely poem with us.

Tear drops provide relief from grief. If eye cannot have tears, the doctor prescribes artificial tear drops.

A remarkable write. A succinct gem that depicts a longing to be free of the heart's burdens. It's hard to live with suppressed emotions. They must find an outlet so we must keep our hope of a new dawn alive. A sure 10.

From a suspended teardrop comes words with the solidity of stone. The poet weighing words of stone has an inborn wish...to balance them with wind.

Long suspended tear drop expresses emotion and this is no more stubborn. When wind will be blown this will be shaken and fall down. Feeling of agony will be warmed up by next day's sunlight. We hope solidified sorrow will melt by touch of greater happiness. A great poem of tears is excellently penned...10

Tears play a very important role in our lives, sometimes tears relieve us from the deadly mental strains. A nice description of human sentiments.

A brilliant write, Valsa. An excellent image too. When the tears drop down it cleanses the whole being. Until then it is a heavy burden! 100+++

Beautiful! Delicate as a teardrop crafted like a fine piece of jewelry. Eyes admire it and heart touches it. Thanks for sharing Valsa.

Highly emotional piece of poetry. As Susan Williams has pointed out, tears do exhibit a sense of dignity. Matchless expression. Thanks.
