The Phantom of Tears

Why do we let people come close to our heart, only to break it?


----------

We do not have control over the rain, the kind of news we'll get in the morning, how many stars will appear tonight, or how many will not.


The news will still come in the morning, we like it or not. The night sky will still be ruled by the luster of one star or billions of it. It will pour, it will rain, regardless if we have our raincoat on or not.


We cannot stop the rain, but we can snap out of it. As long as we know how much pouring we can take, we can run, under shelter, wash if we want, dry and change, in the hope that tomorrow will be a sunny day.


No one can tell how many times we'll laugh at an old joke or the way we undress our eyes with tears over one heartbreak. We may not have control over the things we feel, but we always have the command on the kind of people we allow to cause it.

Maybe, it is in the modest act of replete trust, that they simply won't.
