Behind The Falling of Tears |

I often find myself behind the falling of tears... A trembling grimace folding new lines in my slowly aging face; emotional pain just passing through and lingering too long... Then she takes my offered hand pulls it into her embrace wrapping my arm around her little heart that sometimes finds its big emotions She lays her head in the crook of my arm and falls to sleep... Such a little Somebody can cause my heart to ache so That, the same, can heal it in mere seconds... And I often find myself behind the falling of tears -- Smiling... - dgvarner 4-17-03 "laughter is the shortest distance between two people" - victor borge |
