Diamond Tears

Tears are liquid diamonds, mined from the soul. Nothing within us so reveals our most perfect and Raw emotions as do the genuine tears we shed. For smiles are easy, dispensed with little truth or effort. Tears are hard, arising from the depth of a labored soul. So, labor on my soul, and consider not to smile. My flesh will attend to smiling, for those who matter Little, and care less. But you, my soul, cry, and offer up those diamond tears.
