"Silent Tears: If My Tears Could Talk pt 3"
  by XPERIENCE
  - This Poem is a response to the poem If My Tears Could Talk... by Jody


Silent Tears - Jazmine Sullivan

if my tears could talk
they'd reveal secrets
from the depths
this poetic soul
spewing prophetic
symbolism
creating perfect
symmetry within my spirit
perfecting any imperfections
whether dwelling inside my heart
or broadcast'd through my physical being
id cry simply knowing
that my tears would have a true voice
watering souls and saving lives
my tears would speak to the masses
translate lyrical thoughts for those
considered ignorant asses
burning pillows metaphorically
like acid
my tears would remove blockades
for those..who just couldnt get past it
these tears shout to the world
through poetic proverbs
speaking in parables so that
you get a deeper understanding
crying tears
simply because
life is simply demanding
accepting the life the He's handing....
my tears ring loudly!
speaking for those who never had a voice
those muted by the woes of life
and never had a choice
my tears would calm unsettled spirits
speaking in inside voices
soothing with a calm breeze like
palm trees
in Miami
my tears would speak in exclamations
with no explanations
to those who cant stand me
tears pleading with love
giving all that it had
to ensure that another relationship
just wouldnt go bad
begging for the right to be heard
even when pain was in the mist
or even whispering sweet nothings
at the place of a lovers kiss
but to be real...
If my tears could talk they would
simply say this
"Ive been given a voice to speak
yet noise sometimes can be too violent
listen to my sound...with you heart
hear me through the beauty of silence"
giving up its freedom of speech
my tears would opt to
remain unheard
speaking diligently through
the depths of my pen
releasing tears through words
ensuring that as long as
we kept a pure heart
these tears would always be able to leak
and so i write this most humbly
knowing that through
lyrical confession
my tears..will always be able to speak....

damn...if my tears could talk!
