Arrears

I long to watch the rain fall in torrents

To gaze at dark clouds shedding copious tears

Maybe my dry eyes will learn a few tricks

How like them they can arrears release…

  4. It’s the tears that console the soul and make us march forward without a least bit of fear! For me, tears are the best company when there is non to hear!!!

    When there is no one near
    The hearts outpourings to hear
    To march forward without fear
    I have to silently shed a tear
    Not good enough, but your comment brought it on Bubbly!

  10. That’s beautiful, Shail!

    The line that came to the mind reading this is ‘I love walking in the rain because nobody can see me crying’.

    BTW you are tagged.

    Solilo, ahh yes, something apt to go with these lines.
    I am swamped under tags!! :( Don’t know when I will get around to it!!
