The Tear Drop Falls



How many times,
I have wanted to
wipe this tear drop,
yet...

everyday it falls
without fail.

The streaks it leaves
down my face,
remind me of a
time I cherish,
yet...

it is the reason
that this tear drop
falls too.

Ripping the heart out
of me,
the pain tearing through

I pretend that nothing is
wrong,
yet...

this tear drop falls.

As I try to wipe it away,
another one takes its place.

Continuing to fall,
each tear drop,
brings me one day
closer

to a time
that I will once again
cherish...

    Heartfelt Emotions

    Past leaves us behind
    Present seeks from past
    Future we behold so dear
    Hoping for the return of the past
    With prayers written in tears
    Wishes unfold to cherish
    the moments once lost

    Another great write... take care... go to run read some more of your poems... I'm having so much fun... love Minoo

    Good write. It's okay to cry. Crying could be our medicine, too.

    "continuing" has no e after the u, I think, although that may just be regional orthographical differences. I love this poem, though! Feels like I've been busy far too long, I almost forgot how amazingly talented you are! It's such a sad poem, and I can feel your pain in it. I hope you're feeling better!

    lovely

    there was so much pain throughout the poem but in the end it was suddenly gone... To be honest i was a bit disappointed with the last stanza... this is my personal openion... you may very well ignore it, dont feel offended... but i .. kinda wanted the poem to end on a sad note...
    Great work dear.. Reading your work after a long time.. Happy to read it..
    keep writing

      Thanks Nirmal. the last stanza,

      Continueing to fall,
      each tear drop,
      brings me one day
      closer

      to a time
      that I will once again
      cherish...

      if you read those two together, you will see that it still is a bit sad,

      I am waiting for that tear drop to be wiped away "one day" i wait and I wait...
