Pain In A Glass Vase

Have you ever seen fear?
Ever smelled the scent of a tear?

His eyes moved me as they
Dripped hurt upon my face
All I could do was attempt to embrace
it's pain

A strong man fell helplessly weak into my arms
As a woman, I wondered what could I do?

Nothing prepared me for this day when I would have to
hold in a grown woman's cry and have to help to pacify a strong man's pain


So I did only what any one in my place could do

I soothed the hurt away while singing songs of inspiration into his ears and it uplifted years of misbalanced fear
Then I suddenly realized that his cries became my tears

I grabbed my peach colored handerchief covered in lace

and listened as our painful tears dripped silently...... into a glass vase.

~wisdom flows through my veins thick as papaya honey & wet like mango rain~
