Go With The Flow

People shed tears,
Tears that flow suddenly after wars,
Wars that leave scars in our hearts.

Bandages can't fix bullet holes,
But you can break the walls with all your force.
Force yourself to be the man,
Whose voice is loud enough to be heard by everyone,
Who loves to live with words of wisdom.

Words cut deeper than sharp tools.
Clouds weep whether we like it or not.
Winds blow as I go with the flow.

This is so sad, but so beautiful. Seems to me the wisdom comes from shedding the tears that water the soul and I love that your poem has powerful letting go element.

People shed tears
Tears that'll flow suddenly after wars

Clouds weep whether we like it or not

Winds blow as I go with the flow

I think the wars referred to are those of the heart. Some of the wounds in these conflicts are not easily healed. The last line names the right way to proceed.

A poem that perhaps hides more than it says, thoughts still under cover. But, your words are both gentle and forceful.. hopeful and yet, defiant. Your final stanza shows who you are, perhaps. Thank you so much for sharing.
