Tears

Tears are silent screams only you can hear.
A tear can symbolize sickness or fear,
but can also mean anger and sadness.
A single tear could rip open a world of pain, frustration, and sorrow only you can see and feel.
A tear drips down like a raindrop falling from the sky,
but the difference is that raindrops symbolize freedom,
and a tear is condemnent of the soul.
Tears to another person seem mere and insignificant.
But to yourself it feels as if the hurricane of emotions you have tried to hide has broken loose in the outside world.
Tears run like rivers.
And once that tear has fallen...there is no turning back...
