Your tears
are so sorrowful
and yet so beautiful.
I am shocked
by how overcome I am
by your tears.

Your tears
change the structure of your face.
They mark you,
mapping lines
tracking trails
leaving paths of your pain
rolling along so everybody feels with you
without knowing what went on.
What did go on
to cause your tears?

Your tears
are unfortunate indeed
and I would do anything
to be able to dab your eyes
and erase your tears.
