TEARS OF PAIN

an Acrostis poem written for 'A Broken Heart Poetry Contest'...

TEARS OF PAIN


Tortured souls in the abyss
Each of them cannot attain bliss
Always and forever there
Receiving not one bit of care
Sadness is just too much to bear

Over and over they cry
Finding no hope, wishing to die

Pain and darkness without end
All lonely souls need a good friend
In that abyss there's my heart
Never to heal, broken apart...
