~Sappy Daze~ Day 24

It Smells of Tears

It’s like setting the world on fire. A fire so strong it sets winter ablaze. 
It’s like melting ice cream. A sweet treat on a miserably hot day that’s 
supposed to make you feel better. Tears are like adding fuel to a car. They 
get you going and going and then you’re going off. But before you can wreak 
the havoc you want you burn out. You quiet down and you wonder where you were 
going. You sniffle and smell fire. You wipe your eyes wet from snow and see 
your body covered in ash. You wonder why you cried. You marvel at how you’re 
still alive.
