Tears

Can you hear them?

dripping down the faces of those who mourn

blurring the vision and overcrowding the lines of sorrow

contorted mouths unsure of which way to turn

it hurts just to see them still

sitting lifelessly upon the cheeks of a family torn apart

bleeding from the inside out

no amount of words can justify the loss

another one down

the future on this plane no longer an option

the reverberation of the fall is seen on the faces in the crowd

can you not hear them?
