Tears fell from her eyes,
But her lips passed no sound
And her body held a rigid frame
And her lips were still as ice
And her pupils did not quiver.
But still she cried,
Only because she was alone
And because she was still
And because she was silent
And because she was cold
Her tears did not exist.

Poet's Note: For my best friend Red. I'm sorry you feel you have to go through this alone.
