Taking the tears

As time took the tears
and threw them
through the years
finally falling into the future’s
fluorescent flames of fear .
Where everything
I hold deep and dear
suddenly starts to disappear.
Then that's when
my world came clear.
Revealing the reality
that I am alone.
Alone and
on my own.

Your poem...

gives me a sense of sadness, knowing that you feel so alone. I imagine that you must have family and friends, but you aren't feeling the connection. keep writing and expressing yourself. Your works are read and appreciated. My only criticism, is that I don't know how you would throw tears. Maybe [dripping] them through the years, instead? ~ Geez.
