A song flutters through my mind
A smile crosses my lips as a memory comes
Suddenly I taste the saltiness of my tears
shocked that they fall
The song ends but my memories remain
as the tears keep falling
Creating a stream of salt down my face
How I wish these tears of salt could wash away the memories
Alas no, these memories are not just rivers
*They are an ocean of salty waves
