I don't think I've ever considered the word "lachrymose" in any context other than devastatingly-disconsolate despair before. It just sounds so Romantically bleak. Say it with me, "lachrymose" :p

(Actually, for some reason, the word always brings up the image of Satan weeping under the sun after his Fall in Paradise Lost. Always carried to me that sort of fallen-from-splendor-lordly-inclination-to-tears connotation to me. :p)


Anyway, that was enlightening to learn. :)
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
