Single Tear

Teardrop runs gently cascades

gravity has it`s power

emotions just below the surface

life can turn so sour!

red swollen eyes trying to see

not sure they understand

just how these feelings have hurt

no smiles on demand!

all around, darkness is found

silence fills the ears

this single tear falls further down

 world is filled with fears

heart broken yet still standing here

let this tear run it`s course

for bad times can be turned around

can`t make happiness by force!
