I am a crier
I cry freely and
Easily at any small thing
Which is why I do not
Consider the tears
Sliding down my cheeks
At these moments
As crying.

They are just there,
Taking their usual course
While I go about
My business
Not ignoring them, exactly
But disregarding them,
They are
Just there and they
Change nothing.

But their feeling lingers
Longer on my cheeks-
It wasn't crying
Therefore I had no reason
To wipe them away.
