Nojoto: Largest Storytelling Platform

When people around me sleep, my tears wake up just

When people around me sleep,
my tears wake up just then
as if the alarm they'd been waiting
just buzzed.
I, instead of offering them
their morning tea,
tell my smile to just cuddle with them
so that they get diverted from their daily goal.
My smile follows my orders
but it seems like it is weaker than my tears,
while trying to divert them,
it passes away.
Wondering what to do now,
I approach my laughter.
Initially it refuses but still 
somehow I manage to convince it.
But fighting with my tears,
my laughter gets injured.
With broken ribs, broken bones,
it still manages to survive.
So I laugh.
A hollow laugh peeps 
through the crevices of my heart,
tears become worn out and
try to sleep again. #nojotoenglish #whentearswakeup
