We share this longing.

These tears cried in the grip
of isolation...merge along
the path of our touch.

We cry the tears of the other...until
finally...they become our own.

Then once more...we cry only for ourselves.

For there is no one left
to cry for -

We are the tears of all things.

Longing only to remember.

So many tears
So many fears
Why no smiles?
There should be piles...

Nice write! Thanks for sharing!

I really liked this.  

Greater than all knowledge.  Sympathetic tears and the wings of a butterfly.

Through shared tears oneness grows.
You have indeed a wonderful compassionate heart.
Love, Margherita
