“UNCRIED TEARS Imagine teardrops left uncried From pain trapped inside Waiting to escape Through the windows of your eyes “Why won’t you let us out?” The tears question the conscience “Relinquish your fears and doubts And heal yourself in the process.” The conscience told the tears “I know you really want me to cry But if I release you from bondage, In gaining your freedom you die.” The tears gave it some thought Before giving the conscience an answer “If crying brings you to triumph Then dying’s not such a disaster.” IAN E. MANUEL, Union Correctional Institution”
