Saltless



And I must say,
You were the first,
To ever make me burst,
Into tears of joy,
That were saltless,
Ever-dauntless,
Tearing down my fortress,

No more to say,
Words can’t reimburse,
Your love that bests the worst,
As I cry in joy,
You exalt us,
Make us faultless,
Great wave that befalls us,

About this poem

When I cry tears of sadness and pity he tells me to cry tears of joy and love.
