Tears

The heart cries out
in pains of all choices,
the mind cries out
in angry voices.
The eyes cry out
in watery drops;
in any form,
the tears never stop.

The tears begin forming
down deep in the soul.
Then come the angry words
breaking ones whole.
They work their way up
and the liquid does slide.
The tears can’t be stopped,
they start from inside.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
