My Tears to You by ~Alexar:iconAlexar:



.To those unseen,
.To those that suffered,
.          Who were uncared for.
.
.          I wet the dry earth for you,
.To leave it flowing
.I want it so.
.
.You have wept
.          Much more than I,
.I didn’t understand before.
                                                  I moisten my eyes for you,
.Who have tried and fallen
.          Snapped and continued
.          Who died but considered living
.
.All grew that one year.
.           Those who shared learning,
.           Shared their memories.
.
.They stayed quiet
.When the others fought,
.           They masked their emotion
.                    When taught.
                                                  And that one year,
.          One of smiles, hope,
.     One of sorrows and weeping,
.And those of dried tears.
.
.We all become apathetic
.     Who think after pour,
.          The back choices revealed
                                                  Lay it out for me
.          Put them all together
.     Stitch each melody
.Paint each sound out
.
.Turn it to harmony
.          Each note, each stroke
.                    On brush and keys
.
.    Each string, and     each     breathe
.Moving with the hands.
.     Moving with the body
.
.Flowing like time.
.      Each thought seeping
.          Into each grain of sand
                                                  Oh! That one year has passed
.                    All too quickly,
.          Each season went by
.      Recollecting only memories
.
.We can do anything
.      Both good and vile.
.          Drifting through the clock.
.
.          But accept the unforgivable
.      Mesh it for who we are
.      And become the better person
                                                  The Understood.
.            I… Am no longer a child.
.      Not by law anyways.
.But for you it is to judge.
                                                  Who I am.
.I know who I am,
.          But you judged me too
.                    Just as we judge ourselves
.
.                              And I wept those tears,
.                                        Because it was a mirror
.                                                  The reflection upon our self
.
.
                                                                                                    Through time.
.
.
.
.Be                                          You,
.Smile,                            Grin Wide.
.      Be Happy,          Love Thyself.
.                 Have Joy.

I know I haven't posted anything in forever. But I want to dedicate this to Cubi... And to those of you who have grown one year, and have learned the experiences of growing up.

I hope this helps.

It's beautiful... it's so freaking beautiful. That is the best poem I've read in a while..
I really wish I could make a song out of it.. which I may very well do if it's okay with you.
:iconalexar:
Aw, man... This comment kind of wells me up inside too. I'm glad that you really liked it. Oh yeah, as Robert said, you may do whatever you like.

I would be so honoured if you did make it into a song. Thanks so much.

There is never a time when we our robbed of our choices. Our freedoms to think, express, speak, breathe, live, until our last escaping moment. With the burdens of consequence, the choice leads to new branches of decisions, and there we begin anew.
