Poem: Hidden Tears

I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

Poem Summary

Hidden tears is a poem about someone who is brokenhearted as he watches someone he loves hide tears of pain. He wants to comfort him making the twinkle in his eyes reappear. He wants to feel his embrace as they live in the moment together, seeing his smile once again.

"To Comfort You - by Bette Midler

Hidden Tears

It breaks her heart to see
tears fill his eyes,
as he tries desperately to look brave
concealing his pain.

She wants to soothe the hurt
hiding deep inside his soul,
to make him smile, seeing the twinkling glow in the color of his eyes.

To feel his essence,
to embrace in his comfort,
to live life in the moment
making him feel happiness once more.

"Tin Man" by Miranda Lambert
