Empty Chairs and Empty Tables

Summer.

Crowded airports, crowded swimming pools,

crowded rollercoasters’ lines.

But empty schools.

Midnight.

Crowded night clubs, crowded bars,

Times Square crowded.

But empty parks.

War.

Crowded battle fields, crowded hospitals,

crowded refugee camps.

But empty streets.

Empty tables at that empty restaurant,

where they used to meet.

Empty chairs at that empty table,

where they used to sit.

Empty chairs because they aren’t there.

And they will never be again.

Alone in this world, now I am, no more friends.

They’re all dead.

Tearjerkers

A tearjerker is a film that makes us cry, gives us goose bumps and lets us cry our hearts out. We can burst into tears or get misty-eyed, but everybody likes a tearjerker: teenagers, old people, adults, girls… and even boys!

Here’s a list of movies that can (and possibly will) make you cry:

The Little Princess

The girl goes to the school where her mother studied and her father suffers an accident while fighting. He doesn't remember anything about his little corageous girl, who shows every girl is a princess.

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
