Tears (Pen Drawing)

Holding the fort, as tears pile up

Oh the desire... to just give up...

Flow they do, in a steady stream

Hoping this is, only a waking dream...

Life isn't easy, nor in it our part

Lost at times, where do we start...

Deepest corners, hide the darkest fears

The only respite, these flowing tears...

How do you cope? how to survive?

Desperate for happy days to arrive...

Tears are but teachers, 

Hope and faith you learn...

Every single drop that falls, 

A moment closer to happiness you earn...
