Single Tear
June 29, 2009
rain falls
outside
the sky was
gray
her heart achs
her mind waits
as
a singletear falls
from her eyes
her smile
fades away
that one little tear
has such a longa story
thatno one knows
(no one knows)
Misery
sadness
heartache
madness
misery
sadness
heartache
madness
(madness)
a singletear falls
from her eyes
her smile
fades away
that one little tear
has such a longa story
thatno one knows
(no one knows)
how can you not see it?
the tear
she crys
can't you tell
it's all your fault
'cos that tear
was cried for you
(for you)
a singletear falls
from her eyes
her smile
fades away
that one little tear
has such a longa story
thatno one knows
(no one knows)
No one knows

oh my gawsh. it's so beautiful, even better then your other poem "Sing, Cry, Love, Lie." it seems like it's supposed to be a song, right? it's cool how you can take one little moment and extend it to such a long poem and still make it sound amazing. great poem!!
