Tears of Eternity


On the day of his funeral I finally cried.
I cried, cried, cried, cried and I cried.....

The burden of my tears weighed down on me on that day,
and pulled my depression out into the open...

I didn't see any other man shed a tear...

The fourth person I personally know left us before we even ended February...
and the third funeral of the year, even yet before I am comforted by my dad's passing.

Rest in peace, dad (in law).

Dad (in-law), I know your regrets.  And your regrets you shared with my dad - I share them deeply as well though I cannot keep saying this out with everyone. Just as my dear Jasmine had passed on before my mum, dad, Mrs Liew's mother, uncle David, Jadite and you, I now live reminiscing all of you in my days here on earth, missing every great moments that I might have with you if you were here. But most of all, I miss Jasmine most as I haven't spent a moment with her before her passing;
as I was reminded so timely as I was just penning this off, a colleague came to request for a survey
for fathers.....

Will the river of tears continue to run ?
Will there not be much tears of happiness, contentment, joy and bliss in between? And if there are, will they be far and wide ?

Only God knows.
