tears
they're so cliché
how they 'cascade down your face'
'flow without stop'
'trembling'
'wailing'
tears are overrated.
they make your face hot

they take away your breath
they break your soul
give you a headache
or stomachache
they give you a lot of aches
But, most of all, tears are refreshing
it's a wake up call
a reminder to you that everything
everyone
feels pain
and loss
and sorrow
and that truth is so horrid to me
so I hate tears
and i never let them fall
