The first tear falls

by ShaunaMarie   Jun 5, 2006


I think of what youve said to me,
And then of how youre dead to me,
Youve left me all alone up here,
And all I gots this lonely tear,
The first tear falls with a plop on the floor,
And then I hear a knock on the door,
Wipe away my tears, smack a smile on my face,
It will heal with time, but at a slow pace,
I think of how my savior is gone,
Nothing is left, of my happy song,
Hes left me all alone up here,
Cant wipe away my lonely tear,
The first tear falls with a drip on the floor,
It rolls down my cheek, theres a knock on the door,
I swallow my tears, and choke on my smile,
I wont see him soon, but in a while,
I know Im angry, full of rage,
I know I cannot turn the page,
Broken children, desperate cries,
Tortured hearts and weathered lies,
The last tear falls with a ping on the floor,
I cannot speak, theres a knock on the door,
And then I see a familiar face,
My heart begins to race...

    Wow, I really liked those first two lines, they were so powerful. The rhymes in this poem were really good. I enjoyed it. A very nice write. You ended it so well. I've had times where I felt like this.. so sad, but then there way a small spot of light. Awesome poem.

    PS. I can be your dessert? Will I be ice-cream or cake?.. or something different : P
