~Only Tears Fall~

Nature's Tears 2

"A journey of relief
Begins with tears"


Liquid pearls
Droplet tears
On a leaf of soul
Gently falling
The surface can't hold
Intensity of pain
Smoothing the journey
For every tear to fall

"Heaven knows we need never be ashamed of our tears,
for they are rain upon the blinding dust of Earth,
overlaying our hard hearts." Charles Dickens
