...

tears fall freely,
in tiny drops,
now a rivulet,
an angry torrent,

pooling,
falling,
some wiped away,
some to the floor,

spreading,
leaching,
claiming more,
than yourself,

smiles,
laughter,
hopes,
dreams,

nothing beautiful,
nothing sweet,
little salty,
lot blurry,

acidic,
angry,
comforting,
familiar.
