Can cry a tear.

Can cry a tear

A Poem by Coyote Poetry

"Old poetry written in 1980. When heart was hopeful and strong.”

Can cry a tear..

My heart still can a tear.

A tear of loneliness.
A loneliness of losing you completely.

I could of survive without your kiss.

But never see your beautiful face.
Blessing me with your knowledge and
your love of life.

Is much more difficult to forget.

Days have passed since our parting day.
Your memory is tattoo on my heart and mind.

Sometime so heavy.
Even the thought of you can make me feel
weaken. Not to tears anymore.

The tears had faded away on a Winter night long ago when
I left you alone with tears and a final goodbye.

You are always on my mind.
I dreamed you came to my door.
Your beautiful blue eyes looking into my eyes.
I reach for you and I awake.

I cry a tear.
I realized when I left you on the cold Winter day.
It was the last time I could see the life in your eyes.

Coyote
April 1980

  7. Honestly, I almost cried when I read your poem – it struck something deep within me – an old memory or emotion perhaps, but that’s not a typical experience I have when reading poetry. Very, very good.

  9. “Your memory is tattoo on my heart and mind.” Says it all John.
    I shed a tear, unseen, unheard, un felt—— you saw it, you heard it , you held it and
    it was no tear at all
