indira babbellapati - tears

last night
i sat in front of
a heap of tears:
happy tears
unhappy tears
casual tears
unexpected tears
reflecting tears
night tears
spontaneous tears...

you know my friend
they all looked just the same
they all had that same tinge of salt
i could never tell
one from the other
