I wiped the lone tear that tugged at my eye,
Stifling a sob, I knew, I mustn't cry,
But I was a fool for I strived in vain,
To dry my eyes, drenched in pain...
Glimpses of memories, long lost or dead,
Candid words, some heard, some said,
Promises made, but never meant to be kept,
I reminisced in sorrow, in sorrow i wept...
From pastel shaded smiles to agony so stark,
A moment of sunshine to an abyss of black,
The night trudged on but my tears rushed their pace,
And in my hour of grief, they were, but my solace...
How I longed for love to soothe my distress,
To sheathe me in cheer and settle for no less,
But the tears never ceased, no matter how I tried,
I'd lost in love, in defeat that night I cried...
Awaiting the respite of sleep,
I let my tears hush me by,
That night, slow and sweet,
My tears sang me a lullaby...
