At one time or another, we’ve all felt the need to cry, but can’t.
Teardrops Longing Know of travel wandering escapes torturous journeys some never realized they long to start to caress the muscle holding them back to twist nerve-ends to fire implore desperate stirrings to calm once again the emotions undefined they look toward the top the opening summons invites deliverance urges the despairing purge but parched landscapes remain without oasis even as thirst carelessly exhausts all yearning thus... the entreaty results in withdrawal seeking shelter from what it knows not roiling back into the dullness the madness of emotional capture such are tears knowing not their origin despairing at such mystery longing for escape finding but dry moats of confinement famine of deliverance desiccated ducts of passion Teardrops Longing
