One Lonely Tear

All your pain silently wept

in one grief packed droplet

falling from the corner of your eye

unnoticed by anyone

but me

 

Traceless

it ran down your perfect cheek

while you quickly regained yourself

even smiled

before you began to speak

 

But the sorrow in that lonely tear

said so much more

Another beautiful poem. Your last two lines were perfect. I love the amount of emotion and description you pack into such short poems. Very fun to read.
