When the Tears Dry

The release.

    The burst of tears like a slowly encroaching mountain that suddenly feels like it's towering over you.

That moment where it just.

                         breaks.

And.  When the tears dry and your face has stopped being shiny.

You are over it.

That peaceful calm comes back and you realize you survived another day.  It's over, for now.

You're on the other side and you have a little bit more clarity as to what the other side looks like.

enough said.  a lot felt.  a mountain overcome.

Amen.
