Razorblade Tears

by S.A. Cosby

It didn’t seem fair for a man to mourn someone abundantly that he had loved so miserly.

“It’s easier to keep your head in the sand than it is to try and see things from somebody else’s point of view. There’s a reason why they say ignorance is bliss,” Ike said.

But if all this has taught me one thing, it’s that it ain’t about me and what I get. It’s about letting people be who they are. And being who you are shouldn’t be a goddamn death sentence,”

This time they didn’t feel so much like razorblades. They felt like the long-awaited answer to a mournful prayer for rain.

Sobbing.
