I Slipped On Tears

I slipped on a teardrop and landed Where sadness overwhelms My heart too heavy to bear the pain of sorrows realm I find it hard to say goodbye to an old friend though death has taken her to heavens sky my tears and sorrow will not soon end Life is short but love is long Death is sure in its sad song Cherished memories are ours to keep Sometimes our tears will fall quite deep And in our sorrow all we can do is weep ---- 6/21/16

Always sad to lose a loved one, tears help us shed a bit of the sorrow. Sometimes yes all we can do is cry, and you captured that sorrow quite well. Emotive write!
