I can't stop the tears from coming
Heavy droplets
Red nose
Heated cheeks
The type of crying that hurts
I can feel my heart beating in my eyes
Thumping in pain
Pillow soaked with sniffles and muffled whimpers
Eyelids so swollen
A reaction to sadness I was never comfortable with
Life, so unpredictable
My head is pounding
But its different this time
I'm not alone He's behind me Holding me as tight as he can Squeezing me Reminding me Assuring me We have all we need Each other Right here, right now Wiping my tears Kissing my tired eyes
