Just a question

Tears of joy are awesome

Aren't they? Different trigger, same reaction. Thank you!

little stings

worse than a

fear of

being happy...

Where he's right, he's right :-).  
It's not a mistake to fear happiness since it never lasts ...
Thanks a lot, Paul!

Love it! It's strange how joyful tears last a midget moment, while tears of pain last a lifetime, sometimes......

Does that mean that joy doesn't las as long as pain?
Thanks a lot for your thoughtful comment!

Do they sting "littler" that's the first time I've ever recalled anyone using that word... But nah, in answer to ur question the tears of heartache
feel like a "sliver of glass embedded so deep, removing it would tantamount to surgery"

Thanks for the comment, Poe. "Less" would have lacked a syllable. Sometimes you have  to be inventive and bold with haiku vocab. So we both learned a "new" term :-). And I do hope it's correctly applied ...
