*When I was little girl, I cried so many times that every teardrop of rain would fall of my eyes.* *When I was an adolescent I couldn't stop crying at all. Bodies of water came running down like the Niagara Falls.* *By the time I was an adult a drought appeared in my eyes I felt no guilt or shame but I still feel sad inside.* *The cracks beneath my skin forms a desert upon my face My emotions are fighting me there is a part of me that I can't erase.* *The waterfall has formed as the water absorb the soil That's it I'm done I'm no longer living in turmoil!* *And as I hear the Spirit of the Lord say: "They that sown tears shall reap in joy." Even after all these years why didn't I think this way? My tears won't bring me down as of today.* *For there is joy in the morning after every tear sown because God does great works Therefore in this situation I am never alone.*

Dried Tears
*When I was little girl, I cried so many times that every teardrop of rain would fall of my eyes.* *When I was an adolescent I couldn't stop crying at all. Bodies of water came running down like the Niagara Falls.* *By the time I was an adult a drought appeared in my eyes I felt no guilt or shame but I still feel sad inside.* *The cracks beneath my skin forms a desert upon my face My emotions are fighting me there is a part of me that I can't erase.* *The waterfall has formed as the water absorb the soil That's it I'm done I'm no longer living in turmoil!* *And as I hear the Spirit of the Lord say: "They that sown tears shall reap in joy." Even after all these years why didn't I think this way? My tears won't bring me down as of today.* *For there is joy in the morning after every tear sown because God does great works Therefore in this situation I am never alone.*
