Salt of Tears

Sometimes you need a moment alone

A reflection phase of sorts

Lakes turn to beaches that begets oceans

Tears form at the corner drifting downward

of 

Too late for you to be strong

Everyone breaks but they rebuild

Aspects of humanity are overthrown with reality

Ridiculed at how fragile you are at this age

Salty tears run alone but smile gather at many
