Tears...

Rolling with sorrow

When there’s no guarantee of tomorrow

Cooling the intense heat of heart break

Running with honor and pride

The kind, one just does not hide

Revealing relief

Outlining joy

Stinging the heart as they leave a stain with the coming of pain

A beacon of hope shining as a star

With stress and loss of one’s self they seem so bizarre

Piercing through a fathers lies

The strongest expression that can flow from the eyes

The cutest thing complementing a baby’s cries

With strength to rebuild relationships

With so many hitting the floor a ship would be needed to reach the shore

No one is sure what or why, but scientist say they help to clean

Physically, literally

Emotionally ousting the struggle s of the soul

Cleansing, feeding the mind

Just as words build the brain, they teach us to handle pain

They rear their heads when someone is mean

Visible exclamation points, stating the obvious

Misconstrued by everyone’s peers

Welling up whenever one truly fails

Springing loose when the terminal become well

Kind enough to put out the blaze of hell

With all this they cannot be sold

But in gods eyes they are pure gold

The marks of lessons learned by the old

Majestically mysterious

Making on lookers curious

The sign of unconditional love

Present for creation, honor, and the celebration of life

Degradation, unfortunate, dark remarks

Is where it so often starts

Praise the day when none will fall

But without them the outlook is dull

It is what makes life worth living

The contrast that makes life a blast

Live one life, take the joy and the strife

Never give up on life or through in the towel

Do not dwell in the past but the now

The reason why is so complex

It cannot be found in text

Its unexplainable

But so meaningful

Reading the feeling as if it were brail

With each one comes its own original tail
