What makes a tear?

What makes a tear?

Do you know how you suddenly strike me?

Do you know, I'll be in a crowded room, and you'll float into my mind.... so soft

I laugh when I think of you, and how you made me feel.

Pick me up!

touch me..

Play with me!

Kiss me...

Well, afterall, it's all a dream for me now.

It's so...
dark, and when it comes to you,
I'm alone.

Your face,
and that smile.
And those hands,
and those EYES...
and the way I feel;
The way that YOU made ME feel,
whenever you wrapped me up tightly, close to you.

Do you know what makes a tear?

My head on your chest, and I can feel your heart beating, or sometimes even pounding.

And I looked into your face, and saw...
You.

God, I can see your eyes as I think of you....
so afraid.
So much deeper than you'd ever really like anyone to realize, but you didn't fool me.

Do you know what makes a tear?

STOP AND THINK!

Honest to God, I gave you what you've always wanted; I stopped to see the real you;

I think you know that,
don't you?

Pretend to blind yourself by your fear of what's real.

Do you know what makes a tear?

I think,
if you looked closely at tears clouding my eyes right now,
the drops flowing down my face...
you'd see

yourself.
