She Tried To Hold Her Tear
The bone crushing news tickled her ears
an affirmative confirmation to all her anticipated fears
a heart once kept safe in the pocket of his ribs
had just been broken.
She holds beauty of rare essence
hips pronounced at first presence
she's the type that truly make sense
except for the venom of her deceptive pretence.
Her eyes drops with tears of regret
she rescue the tear with the edge of her loosely tied lemon towel as if the tear is too precious to fall.
She tried to hold her tear
when i announced her freedom
she tried to find solace in her own strength, saying to her soul with trembling lips
'all is well'...
She tried to hold her tears but like pouring rain they poured out when she found out that we are done.
