The truth surrounds her

~4~

What if tears flowing on your rosy cheeks
Coming from despair or need,
Coming from abuse or sadness;

What if the tears flowing on your rosy cheeks
Are a sign of loss of hope,
Or loss of love;

What if the beautiful rosy cheeks that you have are flooded with tears
That come from hurt;

Then tell me, reader of my soul and passion,

What if the tears that fell down on my now dull cheeks
Left unsettling rosy scars?
