Tears From Dust

Posted on by Penny Wilson Writes

They say that tears come from the heart.  I beg to differ.  You see, there was a place inside me where I held you close.  But through the years, that place became as hollow as your soul.  Instead of compassion, you showed indifference.  You turned a blind eye.  Your own twisted cravings became the priority in your life.  I was left in the dust.  This is where my tears came from; the dust in your wake.

    1. Thank you for the visit, Audrey. This is (mostly) a work of fiction. So no worries. I’m good. The words “Tears from Dust” came to me and I had to do something with them. But all is well here, I assure you. ❤
