Tears —

You are my strength,
as well, my weakness.,

You make me feel
Innocent
When like a child, I sob.,

You make me feel,
Impotent
When I fail in my every job.,

When you flow down
as a strong water current,
All my pain
is forcefully driven out.,

When sadness
Tightens my heart,
Squeezes my throat,
You drip down my chin
for their rescue,
And soon,
My heart turns light,
Face turns bright,
Sadness in form of sobs
escapes my throat.,

You are not just
Sign of sadness,
But also
Love and happiness.,

When I’m drenched in happiness,
you wet my face.,
You are the measure of my love
for someone I treasure.,

You are my savior,
I shall be grateful
to you forever…
