ALL THE TEARS BY DAVE STEELE
''All The Tears'' from Dave Steele, The Blind Poet.
FULL EPISODE COMING ON ''THE GUIDE TO RP'' PODCAST
All the tears that I have shed and scars upon my wrist
have made me who I am today prepared me now for this
I wouldn’t be so strong
if I had never failed before
I’d still be isolated scared to step outside my door
I’m not saying that I’m over this those bad eye days still come
For even now whilst reading this I’m blinded by the sun
I’m anxious and my chest is tight I feel like giving in
But deep inside my heart I know I’ll never let this win
I promised just four years ago when blindness certified
Through poetry I’d share my tale to others far and wide
So no one ever need to feel alone with losing sight
Explain their thoughts to loved ones through these verses that I write
But never did I imagine that my words could do so much
They’ve healed the hearts of strangers
Opened doors with slightest touch
I’ll be a friend My pride will mend
My purpose clear to see
3 books will be my legacy My Stand By Me RP
I know that soon these faces that I look upon today
Will disappear but I won’t fear
These memories will stay
My wife my sons my daughter
In here will never age
My love for them is printed in each poem verse and page
When last has gone I’ll carry on to make my family proud
To be a voice for others help them lift this hazy shroud
Inspire them to grab a cane and step outside their home
4 words each poems message saying
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
