Welcoming the Warming tears
….I welcome the warmth….
….of tears against skin….
….the levy break gush…
….of the Static within….
I do believe I’m
able to feel again
……. ‘ …….
….I ‘ll never deny you….
….you tears my friend….
….The are the greatest of….
….Gifts given to Man….
….To withstand the expulsion….
….after the Original-Sin….
……. ‘ …….
….It’s been such a long time….
….Since I felt the warmth of crying….
….I do believe that I’m….
….Ready to feel again….
I really like this, particularly the first stanza. There is just smthn about tears and society’s need to pretend as though they never happen. Keep the poems… gushing.

Thanks &e.
I grew up like most males believing that crying was an act of showing weakness.
How strange it is deny a healthy act of our bodies, so we may lament, grieve,etc.
