Forgotten Tears

Like dripping water that slowly erodes the stone below
Our body is slowly eroded by time dripping by
Be it wise fully expended or foolishly wasted and exhausted
Time passes by nonetheless without a care
For worldly matters that plagues us are nothing more…
Than just a passage in it endless cycle

For the body that erodes under this merciless dripping
Many had forgotten what it is like to shed tears of sadness
For stone that eroded under the never-ending dripping…
Had gotten use to pain of being broken down

Precious pearls that are hidden within
For dropping them seems to signify weakness
Hurting inside but refusing to show…
Aren’t we like the stone that slowly gets dripped upon?

Forgotten tears that were never shed
Only to be eventually swept away by the flow
Intense feelings never shown
Like the broken up pieces of the stone
Melts into the encompassing darkness of the silent cavern night

Unknowingly broken up by the slow dripping of time
Eventually we will all be forgotten and hidden within the passage of time
Pearls of beauty never shed to be forever forgotten
For one would not be able to find something that never existed

What is that that keeps us moving?
For knowing that it is a fruitless battle to fight against
Feelings never known, never shown
Will eventually be forgotten with time
Like the forgotten tears that many hid within them

Even though to be eventually eroded by time
Let’s not hide the precious pearls when we are hurting
For although the broken up pieces of stone will forever be forgotten
The beauty of the pearls shed will forever be remembered by the passage of time
