I know this place. It's the day I lost everything.

My nails dig into the rotten wood of the railing. A single tear rolls down my cheek and dives into the little stream beneath my feet.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAgctlP6gvM5
Jealousy blooms in my chest.

If I could, I'd want to be a tear. Wouldn't that be great?
134Please respect copyright.PENANAJI3I1ouNzG
I'd be born from pain, or maybe joy, but when I'd die, I'd go back to my kind, my family. And then I'd come back as rain.

I can hear his voice again in my head.
134Please respect copyright.PENANAGMRMr9NX93
No tear is worth being spilled.

"Why then-" I scream. "Why did you leave me here?"
134Please respect copyright.PENANA4kzFdw6K86
My fingers start to cramp, the wood splinters and penetrates the skin. But the pain I feel sits deep in my chest. I don't think it'll ever stop.

My tears dry out, after a while. My head clears up, just a bit.
134Please respect copyright.PENANA69knpGgg1w
Suddenly I have a thought. Couldn't I just follow him? Be like my tear and fall?
134Please respect copyright.PENANAUwno9bcLY5
But my fingers won't let go of the railing and so I don't.

Whenever I think back to that day, I know that I should have been braver. Because now, it's too late, and I'm the reason even more people have to suffer.
