Catch her

She doesn't cry for an audience
Even in front of one person
She'll shake her head
And swallow the threatening flow
Of tears she needs to cry

Her soul needs emptying of the ocean
Stored up inside her-trapped inside her
But she won't cry- for she doesn't know
Who'll wipe up her tears

But someday
Those brilliant blue eyes will fill
And no shake of the head will stop them
Someday her tears will overwhelm her
And she'll cry like she'll never stop
They will take her off her feet

Be ready-be there-catch her
