A dream of tears

 I have forgotten how
 to cry

 My tear ducts have
 absconded

 So even when I see a
 hungry child

 And sadness burns
 inside

 It remains a dry
 sadness

 As if I have
 squeezed in

 A universe between
 myself and the world

 So that nothing can
 get to me

 Hopefully one
 day

 I will find that
 oasis again

 Hoping, trusting,
 believing �"

 That one or two
 future roads

 May still be
 splashed

 With tears of
 joy

They say crying is a sign of being healthy
And going through the drought is a signal to a dangerous place of the soul

I wish you tons of tears
lol

Thank you....had some tonight, with special friends and the joy of children's laughter.......there is something about the sound of kids playing which calms my soul......

Feeling the barren places around you, the numb places within you, and wishing for those beautiful tears of joy to flow again like rain. A bittersweet flow of thoughts.
