Salt-water falls
Hiss! Splash!
Salt-water falls
Ocean waves crash
Salt-water falls
Down from my eyes
Salt-water falls
Where happiness dies
A tear falls
Drip! Drop!
A tear falls
When will it stop?
A tear falls
From this rending pain
A tear falls
Can’t be contained
Salt-water falls
Drip! Splash!
Salt-water falls
With thunder’s crash
Salt-water falls
Dripping from my sighs
Salt-water falls
When part of me dies
A tear falls
Slip! Plop!
A tear falls
Let it drop!
A tear falls
From this thorny rose
A tear falls
When my heart overflows
Author notes
This is really meant to be a song. I have the music written and everthing. Sad to say, the music is probably better than the poem.
