My Crying Eyes

By Desdemona

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

If you stare at something long enough it starts to come alive and to your mind it's so beautiful beauty like no other beautiful images will sensor to your eyes but mainly visions will rest in your soul You cry over and over and over WHY? You can't have what you want? but the beauty if so overwhelming tears of pain are joyous now In the back of your head you see others laughing at you crying for no reason they don't hold imagery like your creativity to see the picture come alive scream out at you tell you things touch my face and you will feel the real pain the real tears of beauty and when the storm is over the tears will dry up and your face will leave a beautiful rainbow smile shining like the day you were first born and still images of beauty will arise People will laugh once again and yet you will be the one holding on.... The photo that once made you cry Over and over and over again the image that makes you so happy you weep and yet people will laugh once again they don't know what beauty really is.... or do they?
