Flowing Tears. Poem by David Boyce

Flowing tears.

Your tear ducts are swollen,
As you cry yourself to sleep,
The heartache hurts your tender frame,
Because the loss is so deep.

The handkerchiefs surround you,
Soaked from the tears shed,
As you try to sleep at night,
Alone within your bed.

Remember tears need to flow,
To show you really cared,
For the loss is so tragic now,
For the love which you both shared.
