Empathy Tears
by Melissa Martin Heartache leaks out of your tear ducts And falls like rain into mud puddles. Shredded and worn, your waterproof umbrella No longer protects you from falling skies. Cumulus clouds hang over your shoulders While lightning sizzles your confidence. When you cry I jump into your tears And taste the salty residue of sadness. Your tears talk of younger and better days Before cancer stole your breasts and hair. Pouring our tears into a cup of friendship We drink sorrow and share life's moments. In the depth of winter, I finally learned that there was within me an invincible summer. A quote by Albert Camus. Melissa writes about the God and human connection and condition.
