If Only I Could Cry Comments

A very poignant and eloquent write, overflowing with raw emotion...I can see that you have the gift of keeping a steady 'beat' throughout and maintaining a smooth flow to the poem, a skill which many others do not have. Great piece, thanks for sharing it. -Leslie-

Haley: This is so well done. Yes, can we reach middle age without somewhere wishing if only we could go back just to have a good cry and not be faulted for it. Read mine -I Cannot Return - Adeline

your expressions are so powerful that they can make a person cry.i can connect to it very well and the beauty is the way you putted it down.

truly heartfelt poem

Thank you all so much! I am so happy you all are able to relate to my 'tears'. I appriciate your wonderful support, and take joy that they have touched so many hearts.

Your poem reminds in the opening stanza, how easily a small child cries. It should also warn us that crying is a gift and a release in times of huge emotional stress and loss. Mind and body need the release of tears in the journey of healing. The appeal of your verse is quite beautiful.

These are honest words not coming out your barren lips, perhaps but from the bottom of your heart and translated into tears that like a river are running down your beautiful face! These sincere tears running through your veins feeding the fingers that would hold the pen to write this heart touching and thought provoking poem! Just beautiful! Keep inspiring the World! 10+++ Love and Peace for always! Romeo from New York City! ...
