She licked her lips, still tasting the saltiness of the tears that flowed over her cracked lips like a waterfall,
shutting her eyes, two teardrops dropped from her lids onto the hands that now rested on her knees
She lifted her hands and watched the last teardrops she would ever shed run down until it reached her wrist where it too, turned red
Smile, she thought,
This is the last time you'd ever have to shed a tear. And she did, just before she fell to the ground where the rest of her red-stained tears lay.
