After the floods of tears througout dark and lonely nights of broken promises and hurt feelings come red and swollen eyes with puffy lids hidden from the light of day and away from friends whose sympathy would render me useless.

A difficult subject for sure. I sense the loneliness and feelings of despondency in this verse.

Indeed. True story from when I was younger. I try not to fret so much these days.

Oh I could feel the pain you describe, puffy eyes and all. Spent many a lonely night crying myself to sleep. Have a great evening, Sara
