Tears Are Good
Tears are good!!
Tears are good, really they are, indeed.
Tears are better than smiles since they show you your
own, and those who are
pawns of the world, clowns behind the bar.
Tears are a window when your vision is a blur, yet
you can see quite clean,
crimson and reds, whites and blues of the green
world.
Green in jealousy! Yet, Green is the fields that feed
you.
Tears expose the mockery very well.
It tells you, flint hearts walk wild.
It tells you people bother you, not that they love you,
but how they hate you.
A Hiatus From The Loaded Past
49
Tears are good, for they hold up a mirror to your eyes,
in which there is a balm.
How men love to hate. How they love to despise. The
matadors of today are the
Damnatio ad bestias of yesterday,
for violence runs deep in the veins of man.
Tears are good for they hold up a mirror.
They show you the truth. They show you the sly,
They show you who cannot be your own.
Tears bring you a heart far lighter, after you mourn.
