Rain of Tears

Tears are dropping as I cry,
As I see red stars in the sky.
My cheeks become a bit dry.

Both my eyes frowned,
Just because I got stunned.
Inside me, pain pinned.  

Proud off, I lost my pride.
My tap has been spoiled inside;
Water is flushing loosely outside.

Regulation has gone grudgingly,
As my water is watering waste plants,
Causing more tears on my cheeks.
