Grief

tears are sneaking up on me, that hidden grief rumbling underneath. tears are sneaking up on me, bright betrayers gentle swayers revealing my hidden face. tears are sneaking up on me, I can't hide my fear, now. I can't hide my horror, now. Now, turn your face away. 9-17-01 JV

The redundancy sure does not sneak up on you. I am sure there are much better ways to approach such a broad subject as grief.
