The Devil's Tears Poem by Stanley Oguh

The Devil's Tears



A broken heart screams in silence
that goes unheard,
our ears are deaf to such pain and
we remain oblivious.
We are ignorant to the reach of
feelings and words,
a broken heart by the entire
universe is considered piteous.
It's scream shatters the boundless
universe's dimensions,
extinguishing blazing stars and
wordly planets as it travels.
Nothing in this chaotic world dares
defy it's pretension,
advancing to the stairs of heaven
for secrets to unravel.
The angels weep and it now rains
heavily upon the earth,
it's lifeforce questioning the very
cause of this extreme hurt.
Exclaiming 'Surely this is beyond
the realms of painful words'
yet the screaming heart continues
to complain of it's birth.
Even the moon seeks to weep
upon it's partner; the sun,
It's support as two lovers that, in
cycle, chase the other.
Exclaiming 'what pain is that from
which one cannot run? '
and it's partner shrugs as they seek
solace in one another.
The realms of heaven quake upon
reach of sounded screech,
the very clouds disperse as the ear
of the archangel bleeds.
Flooding the rivers through the
overflowing pools of dreams,
a broken heart is mourning and
desires to find some peace.
Such endless pain that the devil
himself seems to find sympathy,
and sincerely pities the soul that
suffers so terribly in life.
His head bowed down in humility
suppressing infinite infamy,
the devil upon a throne sheds a
tear for a heart that will die.
