...and for once
i want those stupid tears to come.
to fall in waterfalls. to soak me entirely.
to cover my whole face. to get all of it out.

but. they're not coming.

i stare. at the blank plain wall of my room.
i keep my eyes open. i wait. i feel them coming. i feel like stopping them, from habit.

i open my eyes wider. i clench my teeth.
i feel them filling my eyes. i feel my eyes stinging. i feel the tears slipping, i feel them falling down my face. i don't stop them.

i let them fall. i let them wash my weary heart.

i let everything come to the surface. i let it make an exit. i make them leave. i sob. i exhale.

it feels.. oddly soothing and peaceful
