About the Poem
I was a pretty screwed up kid. I used to over-play and roll around in my feelings a lot - and I found poetry a way of expressing them. I can't honestly remember exactly what this poem was about. When I concentrate on a feeling I usually try and fix an image to it and this particular image was my tears becoming huge stones to throw in the ocean. I told you I was screwed up.
Stone Tears |
| by Craig Kendall |
| My emotions pick up power and speed Then break and smash and explode at my heart. The great surges of my feelings impede All that's consciously right. I start to cry. Every tear sends waves of unseen feelings Through the hidden surface of our lives. They roll and fall until all love is gone, All life is lived, and each feeling explored. |

True to itself in all forms. The dark, the light, the morbid, the sane.

This poem is like a symbol of my life right now! My boyfriend that I Loved VERY much breaks up with me and says that we are too different! We had all these plans that we were going to do together and know they are gone!
