My Tear Drop

one single tear had shed from my eye
all alone getting ready to die
leaving his family and leaving his friends behind
not knowing whats going to happen when he sheds from my crystal blue eye
he's alone and going to die
when he goes I will feel the stream of his body sliding away from my eye
it's just another death his family will have to a wait
all my tears will be dried up
all because one single tear has shed from my eye

Nice try, but this is hard to follow the meaning, guess too many tears were shed before they passed. This leaves the reader confused, thanks for sharring. Some poems are personal, maybe this one is. Judy Riley

This is a beautiful and sad poem. It is well written and the piece grips at the heart in a strong way.
