Teardrop

22 8 11
                                    

What stories we tell of love and dreams,

Of ‎the broken crescent moon drowning

In trembling seas of loss and regret.


What songs we sing of life and death,

Of the restless tides mourning no-one

With the rhythm of their steady drum beat.


What poems we write of fear and gain,

Of the girl thieving a heart then polishing it

In the shimmering sunshine of her smile.
