Tears bigger than mine

A basket of tissues

 

triggered in my eye

 

whilst tears of my own

 

roll slowly by

 

 

 

Imagine the souls

 

filling this chair

 

relating their woes

 

in this peaceful lair

 

 

Troubles counselled

 

to a stranger with a pen

 

jotting down everything

 

you keep within

 

 

Despite my own troubles

 

all I feel and see is them

 

the number of tissues

 

fallen in the bin
