Tears

I have tears you cannot see
They drip like a broken spout
If you listen you can hear it dripping
Since my first breath
The beat of my pulse writing my song 
Behind this wall I see a stranger
She wanted a hug but would shrug 
In my dreams I would hold her and not let her go
I did not want to lose her again 
Like a precious gem I held on tight 
In my clutches but it was a dream
It was a dream like so many
