  • “Blue Eyes Should Never Cry” [Poem]

    [3.27.07]

    The rage of having lost you, 

    like waves of angry sea, 

    forever splash and tumble, 

    so deep inside of me, 

    Your pain, that I have caused, 

    has only shown me why, 

    I truly don’t deserve you, 

    blue eyes should never cry. 

    If God could hear a prayer, 

    I ever asked of He, 

    it’d be to touch your heart, 

    and bring you back to me. 

    A stranger walked along me, 

    curious of pain, 

    I said who I had lost, 

    he never asked again, 

    Though slowly, as we travelled, 

    he muttered, with a sigh, 

    “Has no one ever told you, 

    blue eyes should never cry?” 

    He’s left, so now I walk, 

    alone and silently, 

    all the while, hoping, 

    that you’ll come back to me. 

    At night, I reminisce of, 

    how warm you were to hold, 

    the nights, I live without it, 

    bring meaning to the cold, 

    Karma has allowed you, 

    to smile, as I die, 

    so I can learn the reason, 

    blue eyes should never cry, 

    No, they should never weep, 

    as mine will never see, 

    the face of love itself, 

    ‘til you come back to me.
