They just rise,
Little drops, one at a time
Like pearls, only not so precious
To anyone, but her
In the mirror,
She hates to look
Oh the horror!
Eyes red, face swollen
Stop, stop
I say to her, they are not worth
These tears of yours
The pain, the hurt
Laugh, smile and let go
There is no time
And no one to come and
Wipe these tears but you
Stand up, be strong
Face the world and make your mark
That alone should suffice, expect no more.
