A Tear In Eye

piously held at brink of eye
paused for while before it fell
and it was heartbreakingly slow
unlike deliberate tears flow

a falling tear did felt
as if love in heart melt
thousand draggers heart could held
but a word of apathy hard to dealt

life engulf in an elfin tear
shy colossal sky the earth’s mirror
just one solitary tear
bypass galaxy of thoughts treasure

like a dewdrop plain
a tear that silently fell
what’s it worth hard to tell
inevitably conveyed a sad tale
