When The Tears Run Dry

What do you do when there are no tears left to sob? What is there left to do? You just sit there, wishing that, as the tears left your eyes, so did the pain from your heart. But that's not how it works. Ha, I wish. When there are no tears left, more likely than not, you sit there, willing them back,, willing your eyes to fill back up. I feel like tears are a result of your heart overfilling with pain, and the pain has to escape somehow, so it spills out of your eyes. When you have no more tears left to cry, then it's more likely than not that your heart isn't overfilling anymore. Crying released the excessive hurt, and now what's left in your heart is about enough to tolerate. Barely enough.
