Cry
Salt in the eyes hurts more than salt in a wound.
You bite your lip and rub your twinkling eyes attempting to keep those secrets of yours locked away.
Sea waves churn behind the whites of your eyes.
The first droplet of a never ending river ever so slowly trickles down your puffy cheek.
All the secrets you worked so well on hiding burst out with your tears unravelling your biggest secret:
You.
Are.
Only.
Human.
