tears

Funny.
Three very different emotions same response.

To hurt.
To grieve a loss, losing a person or part of yourself.
Cry. Make yourself feel better.
I don't think so.
A damn breaking in your eyes.
The water gates fall down.
The rivers flow to seas.
And flood the whole town.
You frown.

To laugh.
In amusement your eyes water and tears drip down your cheek.
The tear ducts open a crack and let a little leak.

Being proud.
Your eyes well up with pride.
Your youngest getting married.
You first borns first steps
and if you're not a parent have you experienced it?

Three different emotions, all the same response.
Is crying as cold as we fist thought?
Are tears as sharp as glass?
Or do we just not see past the hurt?
