Question:Does the last line make any sense?
Should I keep going, or is it alright to stop here?
Thanks!

Anguish of the soul
And the tears of the heart
Reach for the caresses
Of sun swept sorrows.

It is very good as it is


however
the last line does confuse me

which is great if that is what you intended

but sun swept

is a confusing metaphore

perhaps

sun bleached

or wind swept might be more

i hope this poem
is nort a reflection of your
inner dialogue

That means the being is stuck in the pain body... let it go!

I think you should try to keep going unless you are trying to write a Haiku poem. That is just my opinion.

? what is sun swept?

No, this is way tooshort. I write dark and sad poetry too. Try this for a short poem. I am using yours as an example.

Terror racks my soul,
tears flow from my heart.
I reach for your sweet caress
and all I find is sorrow.

I don;t know if you like it but it seems to have more of an
impact
