Like an Unfallen Tear

Don't really know what this is about, it just felt right

I silently sit here

Waiting to hear

Something new.

Near my left hand

(As if planned)

Rests three grains of sand

Alone.

One, the known,

The largest, the unknown,

And the third,

What I seek.

Tiny vibrations

From the feet tripping around me

Make the grains dance a bit

While I solemnly sit

As still as an unfallen tear.

To pick up this sand

To posses,

Would arrest

Their beings.

Yet the temptation

Caresses my fingertips.

This is so beautiful! I love the image of grains of sand representing the known, the unknown and what you seek, very mystical and mysterious!! And I love that temptation at the end

[Little Birdie]

Very mystical. Adore the descriptiveness, and especially the last verse. It sort of jumps out. It's more emotionally charged.

I like this write, love the rhyme and words,
So very nicely written, loved the emotions.
Awesome write.
