The
emotional wheel of
time's hidden pain releases tears of an age-old child, humbled by the
passage of time's hurtful
gain.
Tears
in belly, tears in heart, tears
in eyes, tears of yesteryear's pain finds release in the song of a boy's
lost mom.
From
days of youth to days of today, the tear-filled child finds lament over
the pains of yester-years emotion.
Strong
has he been in his quest to be free, but in hiding his pain he
has lost that magical flame which
keeps a growing child happy and free.
Yet
through this song, a poem about mom, a reservoir of hidden tears
cascades from his heart creating a wonderful story of surrender and
psalm.
As
tears fall to the ground, pillow and cloth in arm, the energies of love
find expression through the freedom release of emotion unharmed.
Indeed,
the
loss of the child's mom was a source of great pain, but more pain has
there been in trying to be strong, for in the strength of hidden
emotion, the pain of an eternity congests the child's heart eclipsing
his love as a moon to the sun.
No
more he cries, No more. No more shall I eclipse my heart and hide the
humanity that makes me real.
Whether
it be tears of joy, or dew-drops of sorrow, I am free to love, free to
live, and free to shed and share
the feelings that
make the man in me eternally happy, and graciously free.
In
full surrender, I remain, calmly yours,
David
Lloyd Strauss
