| A Tear |
| Hidden underneath the skin For years now long past, Sliding to the surface now For it all could not last. Slipping down the softest skin And leaving a wetted trail, This object now slowly showing Has a tale to tell. The memories of the past And of the here and now, Dropping down from the place Away from the fevered brow. The salty ball of sadness Or of ultimate joy, You can here my softened sobbing My emotions, I deploy. You hold me closer to you now, My emotions suddenly clear. Raising a hand for me, You wipe away this mournful tear. |
