Single Tear

A single tear of loss rolls down her face
To unwise viewer, something commonplace
Her heart knows different, cannot release
Endless pain and sorrow will not cease

Again the world will overlook her single tear
They cannot know her inner pain and fear
Still desiring his heart and soul without remorse
Save the single tear as it plots its course

She’ll continue on idly watching time pass
Picking up the pieces of her heart of glass
Slowly moving on when he has faded
Her love and desire for him forever jaded

Never forgetting all her unnecessary fear
Nor the throbbing anguish of her single tear
She’ll learn to love another man and grow
Not wanting My single tear to again show
