Like tears in my eyes…

The Silver Lining — A Poetic Exploration

Photo by on

Like tears in my eyes,
You cause me sharp pain,
But also cleanse my soul the same.

Like grief in my heart,
You make me numb,
But also give me the strength to overcome.

Like regret in my mind,
You weigh me down in time,
But also guide me toward a future I can define.

Like fear in my gut,
You freeze my every step,
But also show me my courage I must not forget.

Like emptiness in my chest,
You bring to me desperate nights,
But also drive me to search for my inner light.

Like hopelessness in my being,
You make me scream,
But also, ultimately, set me free!
