Emotional Overflow
by Angela HanskaHeart hurts and tears appear
I cant stop the feelings
From rising to the surface
The drop of salt water
Runs down my cheek
And I cannot stop it
There is no reason for me
To feel this way and yet
This happens time and again
Once a month, every month
As if every sorrow, every
Sadness, every pain
Comes barreling out
To use me as the vessel
To enter upon this world of ours
This flow of tears is never ending
Only slightly postponed
Until the next time
When the force is too great
And the dam breaks or overflows
And consumes me once again
