echoes in the cave, 6
tears are the tell.
the river is inside now,
tears tell.
the stirring of something deeper,
tears tell.
the melting of cold things,
tears tell.
the overflow of a living well,
tears tell.
touch of tears,
tapping a well,
the deeper tell.
the founts found bursting,
the heart’s yell,
these tears will tell.
