Drops

All the words have been used to tell the rain

But every drop has a new story to tell

No one, ever, can know what their heart will see

When a raindrop touches the inner sanctuary

~

Let the caress of the raindrops on your face,

Remind you of the tears that shaped your fate

Let the raindrops free the tears you earned

For they are the stream that whispers “you are brave”

~

The world feels threatened by our tears

Too afraid to see the beauty they reveal

The world wipes our tears away like a shameful disgrace

Ignoring the cracks that need to be loved

~

Let the tears soothe the sharp edges of your pains

They tell you that nothing was in vain

Let the tears show you grace

For every drop has a story to tell

~

The world needs to see all of you

Let your tears flow

They hold much more than your sorrow

They are the story of you the world needs to hear

~

Your tears are the ripple of a cosmic river

That carries you through life

Honor them like precious pearls

For every drop has a story to tell.
