The waterworks of my eyes Perform regularly; Filling every pore in my cheeks. With a simple sentiment A tear will shed And another, and another. Provoke my inner sensitivities, And more rivers will flow Until they reach the ocean of my lips. With blunt scrutiny too, My eye will hasten To water the flowers on my neck. And love, and love, And hurt, and pain All like a citric juice in one’s eyes, Or the sharp sting of onion, But not a sad film, For it should caress the heart To destroy the stability And bring forth rain and thunder.   The waterworks of my eyes Perform regularly; Filling every pore in my cheeks.

When I Cry
The waterworks of my eyes Perform regularly; Filling every pore in my cheeks. With a simple sentiment A tear will shed And another, and another. Provoke my inner sensitivities, And more rivers will flow Until they reach the ocean of my lips. With blunt scrutiny too, My eye will hasten To water the flowers on my neck. And love, and love, And hurt, and pain All like a citric juice in one’s eyes, Or the sharp sting of onion, But not a sad film, For it should caress the heart To destroy the stability And bring forth rain and thunder.   The waterworks of my eyes Perform regularly; Filling every pore in my cheeks.
