Tears filled her eyes and she turned away from him.

Tears filled his eyes, and he was trying too hard to hold them back.

Tears filled her eyes, and she wanted to turn away so he wouldn't see them.

Tears filled his eyes and he couldn't speak a single word.

Tears so filled the old man's eyes that no further words were necessary.

She tried to smile, and then tears filled her eyes.

He'd gone only a few steps when tears filled his eyes once more.

Tears filled her eyes, because he hardly looked any different from when she had last seen him.

Then tears filled her eyes as she lay back down.

Tears had filled her eyes and she could no longer read the instruments.
