Don't you understand?
Those tears falling down her face,
staining her cheeks,
preventing her words
They are not just because she is sad.
No, rather, they are full of all of her emotions
The ones the world tells her to bottle up
shove down, hide away.
It's her confidence
Her desperation
Her embarrassment
But most of all-
Those tears are her anger
She knows what she wants to say
What she wants to shout
Her mouth just will not form the words
No matter how hard she tries
Her tears are full of unspoken phrases
Evidence of her broken heart
And the anger she holds inside
