The Tears

By Viji Nair

When your heart is full of sorrow,

No one would be with you, except your tears,

Willing to share your sorrows.

They wet your eyes and cool your heart,

Which make you feel someone by your side.

When your tears stream down your cheeks,

They carry with them your sorrows indeed,

Which make your heart feel cold and free,

From all the sorrows you’ve had been.
