Tears

Is it to lubricate and protect my eyes from your flow? Or do you intend to bring out my joy, sorrow, and rage? By your stream-like flow to others, you show my grief, I know. A parrot in your cage, with chilies of care, I engage What do I suffer from? Migraine? Obsessed teeth? Kidney stones? Is endometriosis the cause of your constant pour? Owing to my old age, is there brokenness in my bones? Has Destiny dug in me her perpetual pain bore? On the death of my mother, at my innocence, I smiled. I knew my dad's death well. Lo! You, like a waterfall, fell. Does this mean that consciousness or awareness, that's hill-piled? Together with you, I've many a tailless tale to tell... Everyone who sheds you says, 'I got relieved of my pain". Who in life, yet, I don't know, wants to cry again... again...
