My tears are like small feet Running down my face in speed I always cry quietly this us a tradition I hush myself and my little feet. Run quietly I always mumble Never do I want to be heard This is tradition that I hide away some where Closed so that if my lips part the murmurs are not Heard from outside ears that only understand laughter So I keep my small steps in napkins and ball them up from Site Because the running of tears is a secret tradition that only I can be present in.
