Analysis of Tears (Nolan Gimenez Wilson)



A gift
a blessing
a curse
a warning
a little worse
a little better
a lot better
a little worse
you have been my companion through high and low
I’d like to thank you
Why?
When I think too much, when I feel sorrow
When my heart feels so full yet so hollow
You shared the experience with me
Clear and runny,
soft and sweet
filled with the salt that I rubbed in my own wounds
and
for those
that were due to happiness
the ones that weren’t faked
I love you the most.
