Let Tears Be Shed Ere It's Dead

What good is weeping
    after the fact
  The time to shed tears
    is when passion's intact 

  When the romance has fled
    and your sweetheart's attacked
  Crying your eyes out's
    a suicide pact

A reality seen to often. A little side note. They say teenagers are likely to commit suicide 30 percent more during the last five years. Thanks for sharing Gershon...
