TEARS
They hovered, tremulous
Suspended only for a moment
Waiting, questioning
Heavy with hurt
They fell, translucent
And I could see your heart
Bruised and broken
Shattered even
They spoke, eloquent
Of pain, and loss, and fear
Transparent, without shame
Craving understanding
They flowed, uncontrollable
Crystal rivulets curved
Turbulent, unstopping
Intense with passion
They subsided, spent
A story told, a faucet emptied
Your anguish eased
The past closed
They healed, miraculously
Restoring lucid hope
Tentatively revealing
Tomorrow's promise
And then you smiled.
Profound. Had to share with my facebook community.
