Chapter 1
Tears are cries for help.
A signal to others that everything is not "O.K."
Tears are what turn a joke for some, into months in therapy for few.
Tears, the silent plea for a solution, or a savior
To come to their aid,
To pull them from whatever dark pit it may be.
Some are fortunate enough to have happiness in their tears
While others go through the pain of having to hide
Their sadness in isolation,
Away from the eyes of others
With the thought of shielding themselves
From the ridicule of others
Only to wallow in self-pity,
Without realizing that happiness is just over the horizon
