A solitary tear

My sorrow is summed up in a solitary tear that sits fat and wet in the corner of my eye.

O tear, I want a flood to follow, but you sit alone.
I want the sun to caress you, but the clouds refuse to move.

O tear, you hold so much pain in so little.
I want you to flow down my cheek, but no one pushes you.

O tear, stop bringing up pictures of all the love I had.
I want you to be kissed away, but the fleeting moment wont stop.

O tear, you bring hope that I will wake up strong tomorrow.
I want you to make my heart soft again, but all you do is glaze it.

O tear, as you finally flow down, I taste you.
Your sweet and your gone.
