About This Poem

The Tear That Perhaps Fell

I hear tell of eyes that did once well
Of a teardrop that perhaps then fell
It formed on the lashes and ran down the cheek
Round the nose to the mouth and volumes it did speak

That teardrop of which I once did hear tell
A might man, a giant, it nearly did fell
That perfect little salty drop of love so pure
If bottled would be the used as the world's cure

For it to form on the eye of a hardened and hurt soul
To be caused by a love returned pure and whole
That teardrop that I would take and keep forever near
Is proof of a love that needs no words of love to hear.

With my lips to kiss that teardrop away
A fingertip to stop the path it would stray
A loving heart to place in the path of a tear
I would do that for the greatest of love I did hear.

    Tears sometimes can heal. One has to let it out so as not to let it bottled up inside. Sad write, my friend. Hope you get perked up after letting the tears flow. Love ya, Mandy :)
