Wow! poignant poetry, Grace.
That first line… powerful imagery and deep emotions.

Sometimes pretending helps us overcome the grief
It may be helpful at times, depending on the individual. I know a lot of people who use the “ fake it till you make it “ approach. I guess it depends on the situation. Thanks so much for sharing, my friend 💕🙏💕
You’re always welcome

Grace, why were your tears stale? Why were you crying? And why did you stop crying? Not because I want you to keep crying, but because, perhaps that could help me too.
Hi Ato. Thank you for the heartfelt questions, but I do not only write about myself, I also enjoy writing about situations that touch me. Tears could be stale from holding them in for too long. There are many reasons why people could start to cry and I find crying and letting emotions out, to be therapeutic. Thanks again for your kind response.💕
Well said, Grace!👏👏
Thanks so much 💕
Another thought provoker. Thank you, Grace

And there is no greater discomfort than that fake laughter.

Fake tears and fake smiles are the reality. Well done, Grace 👌💖
Thanks so much, my friend .💕
Most welcome 😊
Perhaps the first two actions are a requirement to achieve the third., the first step to reconciliation.
