What if you couldn't cry?

if no tears come out the sadness inside does not find any expression or an outlet. tears wash sadness away.

Never thought about it. All my tears didn't wash anything away. It hurts anyway.

As I understand correctly, we need tears not for crying. Tears 'wash' our eyes not to be dry. All these monitors (or mobilescreens) are very bad for our eyes, they are not (fitted) for it. It would be very sad not to cry, because crying we help us to loose energy in such a way. Sure, we can blast our galaxy, or smash some boxes, crash some plates, etc to make the same effect, but tears showed to be the best way to subjectively do with our own sadness.

So, I'd say that there's no sadness at all, and tears is the presence of some kind of emotions, and nothing more. If you don't cry, I can't say that you're sad. There're another signs of some kind of emotion that we call 'sadness', lower voice, less actions, etc. However, the tears remain to be probably the best way of showing the feeling called 'sadness'; that's why if tears are gone, there won't be any 'sadness'.

Well, I sure wouldn't cry over it.
