Crying Without Tears

Many times we cry without tears
The fears we attach to our subconscious mind
We become blind to our destiny
Yet we discover that silence only makes it louder

Crying without tears is a common practice in the 21st century
Having tears empties the soul
Having no tears paralyses the soul and
Makes us numb in the face of many circumstances 

Crying without tears will often
Allow you to go through the motions
This stream of passivity 
Will cause you to be blind to your destiny

Crying without tears is a common practice in the 21st century
Having tears empties the soul
Having no tears paralyses the soul and
Makes us numb in the face of many circumstances

Let’s break free

Jennifer Proxenos April 25, 2022 at 11:24 AM i was divorced for 13 years of my life - my son and i went to live with my parents after my divorce and for 6 years my father and son were inseperable, my son was the son my father never had. Sadly we lost my father when my son was eight, he wailed, not cried for 8 hours until i called our house doctor and he gave him half a sedative. It was heart wrenching to watch my little boy mourn so desperately. My mother and i were brave for his sake. Blessings and hugs Jennifer Mark Frank April 26, 2022 at 1:11 AM Hi Jennifer....thank you for your words. I appreciate it. I think I am the chief one that cries without tears...have a good day...
