What is a tear?


If one could catch a single tear
What would one find?

Water~
It is only a small drop
to insignificant to even be noticed
All the oceans and seas
Isn't there enough water in this world?

If one could catch a single tear
What would one find?

Salt~
It is only a tiny amount
to quickly desolved for one to care
Though the world needs salt
Or none of us would live.

If one could catch a single tear
What would one find?

The world~
It holds all of it
The dreams and fears
The joys and sorrows
And my heart within.

If one tear is shed
Who could ever restore it?

Maybe You~
The one who holds the sun
the stars and the moon in his hand
The one who made all this
And my heart within.

If one tear is shed
Who could ever restore it?

Maybe they~
Who caused the tear to fall
By words and actions
Too hard to bear
For the wounded heart within.

If one tear is shed
Who could ever restore it?

Maybe you~
But it was for you
That the tear was shed
Not for you that
This heart was broken.

If one could catch a single tear
What would one find?

Me~
All my life is fading away
And all there is left
Is one small tear
Fallen to the ground.
