Cry Quote by Anonymous
“*I cried a million tear drops and only one tear hit the ocean. The rest formed into rivers of sadness, happiness, joy, and sorrow, love and hate, and forgiveness and thoughtfulness. Once you find the tear drop that I cried in the ocean, then maybe... just maybe... I'll stop loving you*”
