Catharsis

May the tears that flow
from my eyes be the ink
I write with

May all of our pain
be transformed
into the beauty of poetry

May each teardrop
be honoured in a word
A building stone
of our cathedral

May they wash away
the past, the old stories
to make room
for a new beginning

May our tears be
a testimony of perseverance,
a test of will and strength

May they flow abundantly
and make an ocean
to show the whole world
the greatness of true love
