Tears

Tears ,

They drop,

They slither,

They slide

Results of a bad day

An argument

An exhausting fight

They can hurt

They can heal

Expose who you are

They can uncover

They can reveal

Show a glimpse of vulnerability

Make it hard to hide

Peal protective shells away

Exchange hardness for a softer side

 

I'd like to avoid them

I don’t want them to spill

But if they want out, they are quite persistent

So I know, eventually, they will
