"Crystal Tear"

It is like a jelly filled doughnut...except, not at all. Enjoy.

As I sit gazing into the sky,
a single tear forms in my eye,
not of water like dew on grass,
one made up of crystal glass.

I slowly stand upon my feet,
uncertain at the fate I'll meet,
one without my love so true,
one without the presence of you.

I walk through my empty doors,
walking slowly over barren floors,
in the mirror I see what lies,
deep within my empty eyes.

I see a soul that shines so weak,
and the tear upon my cheek,
a reminder of a love so far,
a sparkling, glimmering beautiful scar.

I press it gently against my face,
a translucent mark as smooth as lace,
it gently rolls down my chin,
nay shall I ever cry again.

I watch it fall, this crystal tear,
shattering with my crystal fears.

I love how the ending talks about being finished with the pain and the fear. This is a great write and I can really feel what your feeling. Gosh I can't get out about that ending, it was just so perfect and summed up everything so well. The whole poem was amazing really, it was deep and gentle and it showed a softer side of you :) thanks for posting!

i can honestly think of only one word to describe this poem, and although it may sound cliche, that word is poetic.
The lyrics are those of a genius and it flows beautifully... I could read this all day!
Never stop writing, the world needs your work.
